This origami phone stand is made solely from a sheet of paper. Start by holding the sheet of paper into two halves, undo the fold and you have the center line in place. Then, fold the two bottom parts to the middle, undo the fold, repeat this step for the two upper parts as well. The folding continues. In making this DIY, all you need to do is to fold each angle and line very well and you will arrive at your origami phone stand. 3. How To Make A Mobile Stand The first DIY on my list is a phone stand made from paper rolls. Get two paper rolls, cut through the length of both, cut open each side of one of the paper rolls to give two open pieces. Take one of the pieces and glue it to the opening of the other paper roll. Use cardboard to cover the holes from the paper roll, then, wrap the remaining cardboard around the whole phone stand. 2. DIY Origami Phone Stand While the first step in doing so is making sure your smartphone or tablet is loaded up with enough content to keep you busy for the duration of the flight, the other step is making sure you will be able to watch that content comfortably. And that is where device holders – such as The SkyClip– come in handy.

Cut through the length of two pipes of different sizes, straighten the pipe or make it flat by ironing it over a sheet of paper. Repeat this step for both sides until you have two flat pieces. Cut the longer piece into a rectangular form and the small piece into a square with accurate measurement. Assemble both on each other and you have your mobile phone stand. 4. DIY Customized Phone Stand This tablet holder is designed specifically to fit the most devices. In other words, it’s universal. It’s made out of an aluminum core lined with soft closed-cell foam. The holder looks like a flat sheet at first, but, actually, it’s pliable and can be bent and folded to carry any smartphone or tablet. Print out the phone stand template and trace it on the acrylic sheet, cut out the shape and repeat the process for you to get two mirror shapes. Attach to the shape together with hinges and place your phone on it.The CTUER Universal In-flight Airplane Phone Holder Mount brings a lot of enticing features to the table. For one, it can be affixed in several angles, which allows users to clip it to the tray table or mount it seamlessly. At the same time, you can insert the CTUER Phone Mount’s hook directly into a closed tray table in front of you, thanks to the clip at the bottom. Over my next few flights, I kept trying new methods. Although there were some products in online stores designed to hold a phone in flight, I decided to DIY it. “Why,” I thought, “create more plastic waste and load my luggage with yet another gadget?” The iFLEX Adjustable Cell Phone Stand is a tad different from the ones prefaced above. Instead of latching onto plane seats, it can only be placed on the tray table. It’s a little weighty, but, on the bright side, you’ll be able to customize the size as per your requirement. Once done, you can simply flatten it. Cool, right? This is also an origami phone stand made from paper. It doesn't require glue, adhesive, or tape, the folding is done in a way that every part of the phone stand is secure into each other. It is easy and lightweight which means it can be carried around. 9. DIY Phone Holder With Hanger

Now, if you are smitten by the phone stand’s flexible design, then you might be able to mold it as per your preference. In fact, if you are willing to experiment, you can mold it and secure it over the seat (in front of you) to get your phone’s screen at eye level. We can’t guarantee that the phone stand will stay affixed, but it’s worth a shot. Another universal in-flight airplane phone holder mount is the one by unitron. Like its counterpart above, it inserts into the small slit between the seat and the table tray. This way, the phone mount holsters your device at eye level. What’s more, it allows you to watch your favorite movies and TV shows hands-free. It even comes with a 360-degree articulating hinge, so you should be able to prop up your phone however you deem fit. This is made from cotton, sewing clips, stuffing, matching thread, and iron. Prepare the fabric for sewing and fold into two-part, sew both sides then turn it out. Sew the bottom section which keeps the whole stand stable. Stuff the pillow with pellets and stuffings so that the phone can stand well on it. At the same time, the phone mount is extremely flexible, and the head can mount in almost all directions. Again, you can clip it to tray tables (while closed). The iFLEX Adjustable Cell Phone Stand is well-liked by its users for its durability and flexibility. And well, it’s quite sturdy too.If you only fly in business class, for example, then chances are your seat will be equipped with in-flight entertainment screen. Also chances are that some of the products above will not work with your seat as they are mainly designed for use in economy class. This is made from a pipe, foam board, cement, brush, and paint. Cut a three-arm star out of the foam then glue the shape made by the cut to a sheet of paper. Use cement to line the inside then place a pipe in the middle of the shape, fill it with cement, and allow it to dry. The pipe serves as the stand for the tripod stand. 23. DIY Travel Phone Stand So I came up with my own method that uses two items: a textured paper towel and a neodymium magnet – as you can see from the images above- it works perfectly to hold my phone in flight when an inflight entertainment system isn’t available.
