Yes! The Pocket Tripod is universal, and works with any phone and case as slim as 6.0 mm (1/4 inch) up to 12.5 mm (1/2 inch). This includes Otterbox cases.

We ship from the U.S. domestically to all addresses in the United States. We also ship internationally via USPS First Class Mail to 180 countries worldwide. However we do not ship to the following sanctioned countries: Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, Syria, Russia.

You can also find us on Amazon in Canada and Japan.

No, any wallet that is design to hold standard credit cards is ideal. Keep in mind that the Pocket Tripod PRO is 2.29 mm (0.090 inch) thick. So it takes exactly the same space as two embossed credit cards stacked on top.

We do recommend carrying your tripod in a wallet instead of it being just in your pocket, as the wallet will protect it against bending excessively and potentially breaking if sat on.

For U.S. domestic addresses, it takes between 2-4 days to arrive by USPS First Class Package.

For non-U.S. international addresses it takes an average of 8-21 days depending on the distance, shipped by USPS First Class Package International.

Yes, we are in stock our the Amazon US and Canada stores. But out of stock on our other international stores (Amazon.co.uk, Amazon.fr, Amazon.co.jp, Amazon.de, Amazon.it, and Amazon.es).

AVOID BUYING FROM OTHER SELLERS, as they will ship a counterfeit product that does not work. Even if it has the "Pocket Tripod" branding, if the seller is not GEOMETRICAL, or Pocket Tripod, it is not an original product.

This is the official Amazon.com listing for Pocket Tripod, which is backed by our lifetime warranty and satisfaction guarantee.

No, it's exactly the same product and packaging. Please keep in mind that the packaging and instructions are in English only.

We're sorry to hear that. Please email our customer service staff and they will provide you with a return shipping label and provide you with a full refund once we receive the product.

The legs have actual carbon fiber embedded in them. Specifically 3K Twill carbon fiber, precision CNC'd and overmolded with plastic to enable it to snap into position when transforming from card to tripod and back. Here's a quick video showing how it's made:

Yes, Pocket Tripod doesn't have any sharp or metal components. Our customers have never had any issues passing through airport security and bringing their Pocket Tripod on a plane. In fact we recommend that you do to give you a convenient hands-free way to hold your phone on your flight.

No, all of the Pocket Tripods are made the same way, and they all function the same. The difference in color is only a cosmetic.

The Pocket Tripod has a very robust construction, and is durable enough to last you many many years. The parts are connected by well-designed hinges and can withstand thousands of cycles.

If the parts are bent forcibly in the wrong way, they can pop out of their hinges and in the process break off a piece. Please review the operations manual included in the package prior to using your Pocket Tripod.

In the event that a part breaks off due to misuse, please contact us, and we'll replace the broken piece so that you can continue using your Pocket Tripod.

Just soft enough to protect the phone, the screen protector, and a delicate case from any scratches or chips. But rigid enough to maintain the angle of the phone without feeling wobbly.

To the touch, it feels like inline skate wheels, and in fact is made of the same durable TPU material.

The latest feature design update was released in 2020: Update Notes

After this design update, there was a production process that needed correction which was causing brittle parts, resulting in premature failure (cracks). This issue was corrected in mid-2021. If you have purchased a Pocket Tripod between late 2020 and mid-2021, and are experiencing durability issues please contact our support team for a replacement. (support@pocket-tripod.com)

The quickest way to check is to visit the adapter size page and click on the "Look up by device" button. Search your phone and case model, and see what size is recommended for it. If your case model isn't listed, see the closest approximated size (Slim, Medium, Bulky).

If you're buying the Universal Kit, it already includes sizes: 8.0 mm & 9.0 mm to 12.5 mm

If none of those sizes work for your phone you can contact out support team and we will find the right adapters for your device as per our right size guarantee.

Yes! Especially if the Adapters are installed in the reverse direction (also known as PRO mode).

The only downside to not having a snug fit is that the phone has room to move. This is not an issue if the angle of the phone is larger than 20 degrees from the vertical position, as the weight of the phone itself causes it to lean in place. However if the angle is closer to the vertical position, the phone is able to move more freely without being constrained. This can become a problem in windy conditions, but it’s not a significant issue indoors.

The half-circular parts that hold your device, called the Adapters, are interchangeable. We carry a range of 15 Adapter sizes that can be swapped to match the thickness of your future devices. Adapters are available in any size between 5.5 mm (1/4 inch) and 12.5 mm (1/2 inch). You can order Adapters directly from our store.

Yes, the Pocket Tripod is designed to be universal. The only thing you need for compatibility is for the opening size to match the thickness of your device, regardless of the make and model. An extensive list of devices and their recommended sizes are available on the product page for the Single Size Pocket Tripod PRO.

Yes, thanks to soft contact points, your screen protector or delicate leather case will be protected against scratches.

In terms of compatibility, the only thing to keep in mind is for the opening size to match the thickness of your device with a case and screen protector. The largest available opening size is 12.5 mm (1/2 inch). An extensive list of cases and their recommended sizes are available on the product page for the Single Size Pocket Tripod PRO.

Although some resistance is normal, you may notice that some of the Adapters included with your Universal Kit require too much force to rotate and may even be difficult to install.

First, try these steps:

• Ensure that you are installing the Adapters on the legs from the side that shows a small engraved triangle. Do not install the Adapters from the side with the "Geometrical" logo.
• Try reversing the direction of the Adapters. That means that the larger side of the Adapters (with the size number engraving) go in the rails first. Also known as "Pro Mode" in the user manual.
• Try swapping the Adapter on the left leg with the one on the right leg.

If none of these attempts made a difference, please contact us right away and let us know which Adapter sizes you are experiencing difficulties with so that we can send you a replacements of those sizes at no cost.

Important: If you feel that the Adapters are too tight to rotate, do not use your phone to force the movement. Doing so may damage your screen protector, case, or even your mobile device.

You may notice that some of the Adapters included with your Universal Kit don't have enough resistance to hold your phone at angles between vertical and 45 degrees.

First, try these steps:

• Try reversing the direction of the Adapters. That means that the larger side of the Adapters (with the size number engraving) go in the rails first. Also known as "Pro Mode" in the user manual.
• Try swapping the Adapter on the left leg with the one on the right leg.

If none of these attempts made a difference, please contact us right away and let us know which Adapter sizes you are experiencing difficulties with so that we can send you a replacements of those sizes at no cost.

Rotate one half by 90 degrees, so that the two halves are perpendicular to each other, then pull them apart.

To put them back together, align the center pin to the hinge while holding the two halves perpendicular to each other. Next, push the pin back into the hinge until you feel a click.

The Pocket Tripod PRO in standard mode can adjust the angle of your device in 90 degree sweeps in the direction of the long legs of the tripod (legs with GEOMETRICAL engraving). At the starting 0 degree position, your device can be inserted in either direction. By alternating the direction of your tripod, you can adjust the angle of your device to any angle within 180 degrees.

By reversing the Adapters from Standard to PRO mode, you can also access an additional 15 degrees in angle adjustment range in each swipe. Additionally, since the radial rails are fully engaged when the device is at 35 degrees, heavier devices can be held at steeper angles.

Most importantly, in PRO mode the tripod is able to hold devices with highly curved edges. This is due to the fact that the weight-bearing contact point of the Adapters are further away from the edge of the device, essentially making it a deeper cut-out.

Minor lines are 5 degrees apart, and major lines 15 degrees apart.

Yes, it’s normal. No two Adapters are produced exactly the same. Some difference is normal because there is always some variability in production. We suggest reversing the Adapters from standard mode to PRO mode as well, as this sometimes assists in a more uniform feel. However, if the resistance is too high or too low to the point of making your tripod unusable, please let us know so that we can replace the Adapters for you at no extra cost.
