Troubleshooting

Tray is wobbly or unstable

Ensure the base is fully expanded and tightened securely within the cup holder. Check if the cup holder size falls within the compatible range (3"-4.1").

Tray won't adjust or swivel smoothly

Check for any obstructions around the arm joints or swivel mechanism. Gently try to reposition the arm or swivel; do not force it.

Base doesn't fit the cup holder

Verify your cup holder's diameter. If it's smaller than 3" or larger than 4.1", this tray may not be compatible. Ensure no debris is in the cup holder affecting fit.

Smartphone stand doesn't hold phone securely

Ensure the phone is placed correctly on the padded stand. For very thick cases, you may need to adjust the phone's position slightly.
