Make your phone camping-proof with handy accessories

Both young and old, most of them can no longer live without their phone. This also applies during a domestic or foreign trip with the caravan or camper. To get the most out of your smartphone during the trip, there are a number of accessories that can provide support.

Phone accessories for navigation

Nowadays there is no longer any question of map reading. Logical, since maps become outdated quickly and navigation is sometimes difficult. Some campers are equipped with a navigation system, but you also have to keep updating that. It can therefore be useful to use the navigation on the phone. This is always up to date and even indicates any delays. It is very useful to place it in the car in a sturdy manner. This can easily be done with one phone holder for the car or in the camper.

Different types of car holders

Not every car or camper is the same, so it is good to know that there are different types of phone holders. There is always a phone holder that is suitable for your car or camper.

Window and/or dashboard holder

The name says it all, the holder can be attached to both the window and the dashboard. The attachment is done using a suction cup so that the holder stays firmly in place. The big advantage is that these holders are easy to read. A disadvantage is that the holder takes away a small part of the view.

Ventilation grille holder

Once again, the location of the holder is hidden in the title. There are cars or campers where the ventilation grilles are at a favorable height. It may be useful to place the holder in the ventilation grille. The disadvantage is that the cold or warm air flow decreases somewhat.

Cup holder phone holder

If you have sufficient cup holders in the front, a car holder for the cup holder may be interesting. You retain all the view from the window and the air conditioning can continue to run at full speed. In addition, the phone remains within reach, so you can quickly answer incoming calls.

Phone holder for the CD slot

If your car or camper still has a CD player, you can also place a telephone or tablet holder in it. Since most people play music via the radio or Spotify, you can still use the "unnecessary" CD player.

Holders for the children

In addition to car holders for navigation, it can also be useful to have a holder in the back for the children. For example, there are headrest holders that can easily accommodate a tablet. This allows children to easily watch a movie or play a game while the tablet hangs at nice eye level.

Additional functions for car holders

In addition to holding phones and tablets in place, some car holders have even more functions. For example, there are car phone holders that support wireless charging. This allows you to follow the route and charge your phone at the same time. In addition, there are also holders available where the device is automatically clamped. This ensures that the device always stays properly in place.

Especially for iPhone users, there are also holders equipped with MagSafe. These MagSafe car holders are available in two variants. One that only uses the magnet, so you can only click your iPhone onto the holder magnetically. There are also MagSafe holders that also support charging via MagSafe. If you have an iPhone 12 or newer, this is definitely worth a look.
