How does this mount attach to my phone?

Troubleshooting
Lens is not focusing correctly or appears blurry
Ensure the T-Series lens is screwed in completely and is the correct Moment lens type (T-Series) for this mount. Also, confirm the lens glass is clean.
Mount feels loose on the phone case
Verify that you are using a compatible Moment phone case or adapter. Re-align and twist the mount firmly until it clicks or locks into place. Check the case for any damage.
Cold shoe accessory does not attach securely
Ensure the accessory's shoe mount is clean and free of debris. Slide it into the cold shoe and tighten the accessory's locking screw if applicable.
Obstruction of phone screen or buttons
This can depend on the phone model and case combination. Try slightly adjusting the position of the mount or lens if your case allows for minor shifts. Refer to Moment's compatibility list for optimal phone/case pairings.
