MeFoto SideKick 360 Smartphone Tripod Adapter

Works with iPhones in their cases

I’ve seen several brackets and frames and cases that were designed to allow you to put an iPhone on a tripod, but this is by far the most useful. The robustly constructed device adjusts for iPhone and other smartphones, and without removing any protective case you might be using. It swivels in almost any direction you might need, allowing you to use a tripod for rock-steady still photos and videos using the most popular cameras in history: smartphones.

My only small regret is that I bought the blue one; I didn’t realize there were also purple (and several other colors) available.

Update

The original SideKick360 was not large enough to hold an iPhone 6 Plus in a protective case, and I went on to try other adapters. Mefoto went on, too, and developed a range of SideKick360 adapters that work well for any size camera, in a protective case or without.
