Compact, safe and versatile for all sizes of iPad
I read through the reviews before buying this, noting particularly comments that stated it did not hold the iPad securely, that the neck was flimsy and that the tripod lever could not be used. However, after using the device I believe these criticisms may at least in part have resulted from a misunderstanding of how to assemble the product and to ungrip it after use.I had very little trouble getting this to work, even though I didn't read the assembly and operation instructions until after I had already assembled it. I am attaching photos that show the iPad being supported securely on a light tripod in both landscape and portrait orientation, and what the kit looks like when broken down to constituent parts. When combined with the rotations of the supporting tripod, there is no tilt or orientation that cannot be achieved with this grip.This was put to the strongest test holding my iPad Pro 12.9" however the lighter iPad 3 was a breeze too. It is important to remove the iPad and the assembly entirely from the tripod and lay it on a secure surface such as a table, before ungripping it from the holder. This avoids the risk of the iPad sliding on to the floor.I think the device is well thought through, extremely compact and therefore portable, and a perfect solution to my needs, so I shall be retaining it.The product description mentions the inclusion of a USB extension cable, however my package included a DP video cable instead, actually far more useful to me, so I suggest this should be updated on this page.

incredibly flimsy
I returned mine straight away. I honestly can not even imagine anyone trusting this to securely hold their IPAD. Also, if you notice from the company's advertising photo, the ipad is actually resting on the tripod's arm, this is because the ball and socket that connects to the tripod is so weak that it can not physically hold the ipad vertically in place with out it tipping down to a horizontal level.I hate writing bad reviews, but I would also hate to see someone smashing their IPAD because of a badly designed gadget.

This is an excellent piece of kit
This is an excellent piece of kit. I'm a musician and use a Lenovo Yoga 2 Tablet which can be difficult to accommodate due to it's shape...it works fine. Sturdy, well made, it holds my tablet perfectly on my "camera tripod". Highly recommended.

I-pad holder
I originally planned to use my camcorder for some work videoing, however I decided to give this product a go. Having purchased a tripod as well, this product worked very well. The only issue with it is the i-pad does not feel very secure in the holder. If you accidentally knock the stand it could fall out, however if you are careful this is not a problem. Had it not been for this small feature I would have given it a 5 star rating

Atrocious design - useless - returned
The only way to fit this to a tripod means that the tilt lever is disabled. The structure is so feeble that the slightest breeze wobbles it like jelly. Extremely disappointed. Returned for refund .
