Description
This is a simple, compact, and fully universal phone holder designed specifically for airplane travel – perfect for watching movies or videos on flights without seat-back screens (like on many budget airlines).
The holder consists of two interlocking parts that slide together easily.
A strong rubber band (not included – use a thick, durable one) is looped around the hooks at both ends. The tension from the rubber band pulls the two parts tightly together, securely gripping your phone regardless of size or whether it has a case.
It clips onto the top edge of a closed (upright) airplane tray table, holding your phone at a comfortable viewing angle.
It's lightweight, packs flat, and takes up minimal space in your carry-on.
Slide the two parts together.
Loop a strong rubber band around the hooks on both ends.
Place your phone between the gripping areas – the rubber band will adjust automatically for a firm hold.
Hook the holder onto the closed tray table in front of you.
Print both parts with at least 20-30% infill for strength.
PETG recommended for durability (PLA works fine too).
No supports needed – orient flat on the bed.
Tested on various phones (from small iPhones to large Androids with thick cases).
Enjoy hands-free entertainment on your next flight! Safe travels ✈
