Audi reminds us to take our phone whenever it's plugged in so there is no risk of leaving it behind. (Does any other car maker have this type of reminder?)

Pouch is a good idea actually, just to keep it neat around there, which one did you get?

I can't let go of spen and samsung pay. This was recently broken and they are trying to fix it.

This is also where I keep my Note 9 on the rare occasion its not in it's vent holder.. I usually keep it in vent holder so I can see it when driving since I use the V1 connection app with my radar detector and when using AA..

I keep a usb cable connected to the console with cable clips. It is mounted on the drivers side of the console. It is out of site.

Nice idea, I especially like the clips, very useful and not just for the car.

I would guess just the phone, but not 100% sure.

Would this work well? It has great reviews in the S4 forums.

That does look like a nice idea if it works well. It would help to deal with the too-small phone compartment. Would be most interested to know who it works.
