Does ClutchIt work on phones with cases?
Yes!
- Just apply the sticky film on the back of your case (it’s very sticky, so place carefully!), but also peels off easily with the help of a little tab on the film.
- The ClutchIt will then stick to the metal disc on your case, & on whichever other surface you choose to place the accompanying metal disc.
- Another option, if the case is not very thick, it is possible to put the piece of metal inside the case between the phone & the case! The magnets are usually powerful enough to work through a thin case, preferably plastic.
Is the adhesive film reusable?
The very sticky “sticky film” CAN be used another time on a vertical surface, and couple of times on a flat surface, BUT we don’t recommend it because it loses its power after the first use.
Will the magnet hurt my phone?
No, the magnets are perfectly safe for your phone.
Does the ClutchIt NEED a metal disc to attach to a surface?
Not quite. The ClutchIt will attach to any magnetic metal surface without a disc.
Examples include a car frame, metal tables, & some stove tops!
Where can I store the metal discs when I'm not using them?
The discs will fit conveniently inside the case it’s shipped in, which doubles as a protective carrying case!
How does the ClutchIt stay attached to vertical surfaces without slipping off?
The silicone-rubber surfaces of the ClutchIt give it enough friction to mount to any surface regardless of its angle. Even the heaviest phones won’t make the ClutchIt slip or fall.
Does it matter which side of the ClutchIt I put on the phone?
Nope!
The ClutchIt is completely reversible, so don’t worry about flipping it around when you move it from place to place!
How is ClutchIt! different than all other magnetic phone holders already available?
All of the magnetic phone holders on the market carry a one-sided magnet, & only one ball joint, so they’re stationary (it makes the BIGGEST difference), & do not have the amount of flexibility as the ClutchIt.
Also, the ClutchIt is made with strong 7075 series aluminum & the highest quality neodymium magnets. The difference from other holders is power!!
Can I install the plates and use the device immediately?
ClutchIt plates use highest quality 3M adhesives for very-high bond. As our videos, and instructional state preparing the surface with alcohol and allowing 12-24 hours to cure without the device on it. This ensures a long and lasting connection for your ClutchIt to latch onto.
Where can I install the ClutchIt?
The metal plates included allow you to either place on a device (thin plates), or to a surface that isn’t already metal (thick plates). We recommend as always a clean, and flat surface.
Is it stable in the car?
ClutchIt uses multiple powerful neodymium magnets in order to securely latch onto the surface. Properly installed the ClutchIt ensures you have a safe and convenient mount.

Are the plates able to be removed?
Yes, while a very strong adhesive, floss or a flat surface such as a credit card can pry off the plate from surfaces without damage.
