Cell phone mounts?

Curious where people are putting their phones. I’m used to mounting mine below the dash or vents, so I have access but haven’t found any good accessories designed for the new model yet. Anyone else?

Serious question: why do you want your phone mounted?
I can see the use case if you’re driving an Uber or similar, but what other reason - when most everything can be displayed on a bigger screen close by?

Fair question. I find it easier to access at stop lights if it’s mounted rather than tucked away

My phone is always charging, which makes sense as CarPlay and the GPS use a ton of battery.

When driving, all my phone needs (messages, music, GPS, calls) can be managed with voice or the main screen in the car.

And I *hated* having my phone dangling somewhere, taking space by the windshield - just as I *hated* having a GPS mounted on the dashboard/windshield. So much happier with CarPlay/Siri.

Afraid I can’t help you. Maybe others can.

I really appreciate your feedback. I agree that I'd rather not have my phone just out there, eating into the dash and interface. This is my first Porsche, so maybe I just need to rely on the built in software more. Do you just have it read/announce your messages/emails to you?

Really love where Porsche put the charging station for phones on the Macan. Now I have to struggle to take it off and distract myself from driving. Lately I also close the flap so I don't have temptations. The system allows reading messages (not emails at least on iPhone) but let's say the writer can wait.
