About iOttie
iOttie is a well-known brand that specializes in producing high-quality car mounts and accessories for mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. They are particularly known for their innovative and user-friendly designs that aim to make it easier for people to use their devices while driving.
iOttie’s product range includes various types of car mounts, such as dashboard mounts, windshield mounts, vent mounts, and CD slot mounts, among others. These mounts are designed to securely hold devices of different sizes and shapes, allowing users to have hands-free access to their devices while driving for navigation, music streaming, and more, without compromising safety.
Getting Started
For optimal mounting and charging, please follow the detailed instructions within this manual when using the Auto Sense Wireless Charging Mount. iOttie is not liable for possible damages due to product misuse.
- The mount should be aligned so that all 3 spacers contact the inner wall of the cup holder.
- Twist the dial to extend spacers so they securely contact the inner wall of the cup holder.
Critical Information
Mounting at a perpendicular angle to the mount works best with the proximity sensor. If mounting at an angle, the phone will need to be very close to the sensor for the arms to open.
- Smartphone cases
Reflective Smartphone cases work best. Dark-colored or textured cases do not reflect light well, making it difficult for the Proximity Sensor to detect the phone. If using a dark-colored or textured case, the phone will have to be very close to the mount for the arms to open automatically.
- Compatibility
Before using the product, make sure your device is Qi Wireless compatible. Compatible devices include iPhone X, iPhone Xs, iPhone XR, Samsung Galaxy S10, S10+, Note9+, and Google Pixel 3.
- Qi Wireless Charging in Vehicle
Use the included iOttie Car Charger and Micro USB Cable. If you do use a third-party car charger, use a Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0 or equivalent adapter to receive a wireless charge (with compatible devices).

Adjusting the Mount

Using the Auto Sense Mechanism
Once it is unplugged or the car is turned off, the Auto Sense’s internal battery keeps a charge for up to one hour.
Mounting and Charging
- Side arms on the mount automatically open via a silent step motor for one second when the phone is detected in front of the Proximity Sensor on the mount.
- Once the phone is placed in the mount, the arms will automatically close after one second. Qi wireless charging will start immediately.
Releasing Device
- Buttons under the light on both sides of the device can also open and close the arms. One or both buttons can be pressed.
The Auto Sense is powered via a micro-USB cable and coil cell battery. There is no on/off switch on the device. Once it is plugged in, the device will remain on unless the vehicle shuts off power when in parking mode.
Qi Alignment Guide
The Qi Receiver Coil is usually located in the center area of the phone. Check with your phone’s manufacturer for the Qi coil location. Below are some examples of commonly used phones.
- For larger/plus phones or larger cases, the knob on the mount will need to be adjusted as indicated by laser etching on the back for proper alignment with Qi coils.
- The Qi coil on the mount is located at the top, above the iOttie logo. Please follow the guide below to line up your phone with the device for optimal wireless charging.
