the tiny umbrella that keeps your screen readable + your phone cool

Best travel gadget

I bought this phone umbrella for my trip to Florida and honestly didn't expect to love it as much as I do! It worked perfectly on the sunny beach and made such a difference when trying to see my phone screen in the bright sun. It also helped keep my phone cooler and protected from direct sunlight.

Super easy to attach, lightweight, and surprisingly sturdy even with the beach breeze. I got several compliments and questions about where I bought it! Definitely one of those simple little travel gadgets that turns out to be incredibly useful. Highly recommend for beach days, poolside lounging, cruises, or outdoor travel.

Nice product

Cute

Big, sturdy, strong magnet, QUALITY

Umbrella is large, bendy attachment to magnet is thick and feels durable. Magnet is thick and STRONG. Absolutely provides shade and cooled phone down instantly.

Super cute and so functional!

This cute Phone Umbrella is the best little find! It works so well! My phone did not get hot at the beach and you can see your phone screen just fine too! The magnet is strong and I love the extra ring to hold on to. I'm ordering more for gifts because this is so cute and it's awesome!

Everyone will stop

Works like a dream. No glare. Easy to use.

Cute and works

Very cute and fun!! Used for summer gift baskets and worn well. Not sure how they hold up or how long they last but they actually work pretty well.

This keeps the Australian sun off your phone in the car

I use my phone for navigation on the dash of my car and the phone gets SO hot from the sun and using the GPS and charging. This little umbrella is brilliant. You can manoeuvre it down low so you can still see over the dash and it keeps the phone much cooler. It also keeps reflections off the screen and makes it easier to see. I've even had other 4WDer asking where I got it from. Recommended.

Finally protection from the sun light

Works with Apple MagSafe in my iPhone 16 pro Max.

Good but heavy

Works fine, but a little heavy.

Gift for my daughter so that she can see the cell phone screen even when she is in the pool

Beautiful and functional idea

Surprisingly useful for a variety of situations

Love it!!
It has a nice adjustable neck, it can attach to the phone and to other items easily, it's super nice feeling/great quality… though I feel sorta silly for buying it, I totally do NOT regret it - my phone has been over heating while I'm outside so this is a great creature-comfort option for me!!

Side note, it also can be used as a way to prop up your phone to just the right angle while eating at the table or whatever.

It works!

Effective. Great magnet. Has two sides so test both to see which side is stronger. I also attach my magsafe popsocket to it. It's very adjustable. Need to use it more before I can comment on durability. Easy to use.

Happiness in a tiny umbrella!!!

This right here has made my hours by and in the pool so much better! I can read my book… add a hat and it's the perfect amount of shade! Silly happiness in a tiny umbrella!! It's the small things! 😊🙂

Love, love this!

I use this on the beach and even though we sit under a canopy, the sun still affects the glare on my phone. But using this little umbrella, it works perfectly in protecting my phone from the sun heat and also the glare. I bought one for my husband to use as well.

So cute and perfect for the beach and outdoors.

This is perfect for being able to see your phone screen while sitting outside.

Love it!

This has to be the cutest (and yes bougiest) accessory I have ever purchased! Gone are the days of having to shield my phone in the blazing sun. I just pop this open and voila I can read my phone!

Works great!

Wasn't sure this would actually work but it does!! I have already used several times outside and can see my phone perfectly! No glare, keeps it cool and don't have to worry about my phone getting overheated. Will be using all summer!

Need for the sunny days.

Very strong magnet and shade works great.

ITS PERFECT AND THE MAGNET WORKS GTREAT

She's perfect

It's literally perfect. I like to sit in the sun and scroll tik tok and whatnot, but the sun would just blast my phone. This is a game changer, My phone is always shaded now. 11/10 recommend

Excellent for the sun

Excellent! It protects the phone from the sun at the beach.

Cell phone umbrella

Love the color. It really works. Easy to use

Cute!

Cutest idea and actually useful! Great vendor, quick shipping

Great Gadget

Great gadget that keeps my phone cool and reduces glare while playing Pokemon Go. I always get comments on how cool it is when I'm walking around.

Blocks the sun

It was a gift for someone and they love it.

Good product

As described. Very happy with the product. Fast delivery.

Great shade for phone

Worked as expected. Perfect for a sunny day to view your phone or keep your phone shaded.

I'd buy it again!

I absolutely love this little thing. It is super handy on the beach and really helps to see your screen and not the glare of the sun. The loop on the back is nice and firm, but after long amounts of time from use can become uncomfortable.

Fun gift accessory

Bought this to add to a gift bag for a coworker who loves going to the lake. Of all the things in the bag, this was her favorite! Great accessory for those in the sun who still want to stay social and grab content on their phones.

Very useful

Super cute and it worked well for my daughter

Magnetic Phone Umbrella review

Best phone umbrella out there! Strong magnet, sturdy flexible hose attached and stays in place. The ring is a plus to hold your phone. Umbrella covers entire phone and keeps phone cool. I've tried other phone umbrellas but this one is definitely worth the extra few dollars!

Coolest thing ever!

Easy to attach, easy to fold and carry and most importantly does what it is supposed to do. I must add, good quality materials and well made.

Great purchase

Love them...purchased too. Keeps sun off and keeps phone cool if you have it sitting out. Folds up nicely for travel

Must needed for beach and pool

Perfect for looking at phone on the beach or by the pool.

Need to see your screen while outside

I have the Apple MagSafe case, it fit perfect, has tiltability, color is as listed and was a great value for the money

Cute and functional

This is perfect for floating in the pool sitting in the yard on a hot day, and definitely does its job looking cute at the same time. The only gripe I have is that where the magnet connects to the umbrella is fairly weak if you aren't careful. I had to buy a second one because I wasn't gentle enough with it. But I still definitely recommend one of these!

No more overheating

I drive around all day and my phone tends to overheat at the windshield, this umbrella is a lifesaver!

Adorable

Very nice and so adorable

Love it!!

My husband and I both run GameChanger, a baseball scoring app, as well as video for football games. If it is a really warm day, our iPhone screens will drastically dim to keep the phone from overheating, making it almost impossible to see what you are doing, especially if it is bright out. This sweet little umbrella just slaps on the back and keeps the phone from getting too hot and dimming. Perfect for what we needed!!

Saw my phone clearly in the sun!!

Perfect for my vacation at the beach!!

allows clear visibility when reading in the sun

I wasn't sure this would work, but as I love to read in the sun, it turns out that it is absolutely perfect. While sitting at the pool yesterday several others noticed it. First they laughed, but then they all decided they had to have one when they realized how well it worked. My husband had me order one for him as well. Good job guys!!

Quad Lock Mag Case COMPATIBLE!

So, aside from the fact that I haven't had time to test it, I love it so far! Now, for the reason I'm actually making this review.

I have the Quad Lock Mag Case for my phone and I wanted something that would "work" with it. This umbrella, in fact, is a PERFECT fit for the Mag Ring on the Quad Lock Mag Case. And the combination of the mag ring and the magnet on the umbrella creates a STRONG connection that actually requires a little force to break lol.

So if your phone case happens to have a magnetic backing, this is PERFECT for it!

Tanning game changer

This is a game changer for tanning. I have use this with my phone and my iPad and it works great. I love that you can twist it to block the sun wherever it's coming from and that it just magnetizes to your case if you have a MagSafe case or just straight onto your iPad.

Perfect Glare-Blocker for Field Work in the Florida Sun!

I purchased this magnetic phone umbrella specifically to help reduce glare while taking photos during field inspections—and it's been a total game changer! The Florida sun can be intense, and glare used to ruin so many of my work pictures. Since using this, my photos have been much clearer and more professional-looking. The quality of the umbrella exceeded my expectations—it's sturdy, easy to attach, and it even came with extra accessories which was a nice bonus. Highly recommend for anyone who works outdoors and needs better photo clarity!

Everyone needs one of these!

Buy this immediately. Like you don't even need to be reading this just go buy one. And then buy them as gifts for everyone you know. First summer I haven't had any issues with my phone overheating despite laying out in the pool with it in the direct 99 F sun. If you have ever had issues with your phone rage quitting from the heat— this is the solution you need. It's also very cute and very easy to use. Totally worth the cost.

See your phone in the bright outdoors

Great little umbrella for being able to see your cell phone when out in the sun - at the park, a ball game, the pool and so forth. The mag clip is great and so is the flexibility of the umbrella.

Works Excellently

I get compliments from strangers for this!! It really keeps my phone cool in the sun. Moreover, it helps combat glare. I play Pokemon Go and this has become essential on sunny days from the first time I snapped it to the back of my phone. It is adjustable, it stays on, and while totally functional, it is sooo cute!

Perfect for Soccer Mom Life (and Beach Days Too!)

This MagSafe umbrella for my phone has been a total game-changer! I use it all the time when I'm live streaming my son's soccer games—it protects my phone from both rain and harsh sunlight, which used to be such a struggle. Now I don't have to worry about glare or water ruining the stream.

I also use it at the beach, and it makes such a difference when trying to see my phone in the bright sun. It's adorable, super functional, and I seriously get asked about it every single time I use it. If you're often filming or just trying to use your phone outdoors, this little gadget is a must-have!

Outdoor phone umbrella

This is a great idea. Helps read phone when it's very sunny at the beach or by the pool. Sturdy and flexible to adjust. The magnet grips phone and does not fall off.

Love!

I bought this to give a try on a beach vacation. I loved it and it was perfect for keeping the sun glare off my phone screen. I am now buying them for all my daughters and granddaughters.

A great purchase

This little phone umbrella was a very useful and fun purchase. I took it when I traveled to Orlando and visited Disney, and that very day it was super sunny… and then it rained! The little umbrella protected my phone perfectly and caught everyone's attention—several people asked me where I got it.

It's lightweight, practical, easy to attach, and worked great for both sun and rain. Totally recommended for trips or unpredictable days.

Do you hate the sun glare?!?! Get this!!!!

Best purchase ever!!! I love floating in the pool for hours watching TikTok's on my phone but I'm not a fan of the glare, this umbrella solves that problem. Also it keeps the phone from over heating when we have it connected to the speaker and still want easy access to changed songs. 10/10

Works GREAT!

Bought this after seeing someone at an event using their phone all day in the sun. Before this it was hard to see my phone out in the bright sun. This worked great so glad I had it for the next event. Worth every penny! It was also raining the day I had it and helped keep my screen from being affected by the water droplets. My daughter saw mine, she bought the blue one, and was just as happy with how it worked. I did like the color of the blue one, so I ordered one in that color too!!! The magnet held well. It is perfect because you can adjust it depending on where you need it! Great item so happy I made this purchase!!!!

Adorable

Most random purchase in a while but exactly what my teenager was looking for while she lays out in the sun

Fun & Cute

This is probably the most obnoxious thing I have ever purchased but I absolutely LOVE it. Used it all day today while sitting by the lake and it was sunny. Not only blocked the sun from my phone, but just enough to also block the sun from my face saving me from a sunburn. It is super fun and cute, the magnet works like any other mag safe pop socket, quality is quite literally amazing, even has a little snap button to wrap the umbrella in. The size/coverage is perfect, it might be a little big for some people who want it to be a little more subtle, but for me I love it and is actually an impulse purchase I do NOT regret getting.

It's ridiculous how much I love this thing!

If you're on the fence between this one, and one of those cheap ones that are all over Amazon, just pay the extra money and get this one. This is hands down one of the best purchases I've ever made.

I do Doordash, UberEats, Shipt etc.. and every summer my phone absolutely ROASTS in the dashboard. I've got it up there to see/accept orders, and for the gps. Plus those apps kill your battery, so you pretty much have to have your phone plugged in charging the entire time too. Which we know just heats up our phone even further.

So every summer, for the past few years, I've been saying, man, I wish they made some kind of little umbrella or something to shade my phone while I'm driving. I had looked briefly before, but nothing really ever caught my eye.

This year, with our crazy heatwave in SoCal (regularly getting above 110°) I was like ok, enough is enough. So I can't on Amazon determined to find something.

I was bombarded with listings for all those cute little colorful umbrellas. I was tempted, but there were a few things I didn't really like about them.

1.) The suction cup holder: I have a PopSocket on my phone, so I wasn't sure how their little suction cup holder would work on my phone. Plus tbh, I've used those little animal suction cup things before on my devices, and I had 0 confidence it would stay on the whole time I was driving. And, I didn't want to deal with taking that suction cup off and on my phone all the time.

2.) Most of those other umbrellas looked more decorative than functional, and I saw some people comment that the sun and heat just goes straight through the cheap fabric.

3.) Since I was going to be using this solely in my car while driving, I was nervous about the umbrella size blocking a good portion of my windshield, or being too small and be useless.

4.) The real selling point to me was the other umbrellas only have a plastic, straight handle. This product has a magnetic, flexible handle. Again, using this in my car, i needed something that I could bend and move to ensure the umbrella wasn't blocking my view while driving.

The setup that I have in my car for my phone and this umbrella is absolutely perfect. I bought a cd player phone holder here on Amazon, which is another one of those must have products if you work in your car like I do. Then I had an old PopSocket base in my car, which I used to attach the umbrella magnet to.

Have you ever bought something that afterwards when you use it you actually feel giddy? I know it sounds ridiculous, but that's how I feel when I use this little umbrella. It just works soooo perfectly I can't even stand it.

I love the fact that I can bend and move the umbrella due to the bendable handle. If the sun is at a weird angle, I can just bend the umbrella a little and bam, a shaded phone.

I also didn't realize how much I couldn't see due to the glare on my phone from the sun. With this umbrella, I can see the whole screen perfectly. (I hadn't adjusted the umbrella in the picture, that's why there's still sun and glare on the screen.)

Bottom line is if you're looking for a little umbrella to keep the heat and or glare/sun off your phone, just but this one. Don't waste your time with one of those cheap ones that you'll just end up returning or throwing out anyways.

These are adorable… AND useful!

What a great idea!

We spend a lot of time outside camping, boating, sitting on the dock, and it's almost impossible to see anything on my phone when the sun is shining. This little umbrella has solved that problem! Additionally, it helps to keep my phone from overheating. The magnetic ring attaches easily to the back of your phone or case, and then the umbrella attaches to the ring when you need it! The arm is very strong and will allow you to bend the umbrella in any direction or angle you want. When you don't need it, you simply pull the umbrella off, and fold it up like you would any full sized umbrella! In addition to being useful, it serves as a fun conversation starter for anyone seeing this type of gadget for the first time! If you are an outdoor enthusiast who uses your phone while outside, you NEED this cute umbrella in your life!

Worth it

I take a lot of walks and my phone always tends to overheat and the glare from the sun makes it impossible to see the screen. Well, this weekend I went to an outdoor Pokémon Go event and decided to finally get one of these for the occasion, despite how goofy they look to me. My only problem is that I didn't get more than one of them because my group was taking turns with it. It's super adjustable, easy to use and pack in my bag, seems pretty durable. I'm glad I got this one rather than a suction cup one because I was worried about my phone ending up on the ground. 100% recommend! I'm probably going to attach the ring that comes with it to my e-reader.

Perfect Sun Shield for Outdoor Phone Use

I got this magnetic phone umbrella specifically for when I'm outside playing Pokémon Go, and it has completely changed my experience. Before using it, I constantly struggled to see my phone screen in direct sunlight—the glare made it nearly impossible to see my screen, even with my brightness turned all the way up. This phone umbrella blocks the sun effectively, and now I can actually see everything on my screen clearly, even on the brightest days.

One of the things I appreciate most is how securely it attaches to my MagSafe phone case. It stays in place really well, even if I'm walking around or moving my phone a lot. The magnetic connection feels strong and reliable, which gives me peace of mind that it won't just fall off.

I also really like the flexible handle. It allows me to adjust the umbrella to any angle I need, depending on where the sun is. Whether I'm standing still or on the move, I can quickly reposition it for the best shade. It's such a simple idea, but it makes a huge impact, especially during long outdoor sessions. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who spends a lot of time using their phone outdoors—especially fellow Pokémon Go players!

Surprisingly awesome!!

There are several options to choose from when deciding on one of these phone umbrellas, but I went with the magnetic one. It's more expensive, but I think the quality is worth it. The "neck" also bends on this one, and most of the ones I saw that just had a suction cup did not bend.

My phone has a built-in magnet, so I used the included magnet on my kindle because I also love to read while at the pool/beach, and it's impossible with the sun being so bright (I have the kindle fire 8).

The magnet on this umbrella shade is strong! It adheres to my phone and doesn't budge. The added bonus of being able to bend the umbrella to where you need it is a must, imo. I also love that it comes with a little strap to secure the umbrella when it's closed. The umbrella itself seems sturdy and the material is thick. This is made of metal and hard plastic, which, compared to the other options out there, means it's much more durable. Highly recommend!

Note/tip: I read another review that stated the included stick-on magnet wasn't useful because when they removed the umbrella, it tore the magnet off. If you gently SLIDE it off instead of pulling it up/out and off, this should help the stick-on magnet stay put.

Cell phone shade umbrella is AMAZING!!!

Helps prevent my cell phone from overheating and getting a black screen. I have unfortunately experienced the worst case scenario when using my gps on cell in the middle of a heatwave. It overheats and shuts down and have to hold it over the ac vent while on full blast to cool down the battery and phone.
Great investment and invention. Years ago I wanted to create something for this purpose and your cell shade umbrella met and exceeded my expectations. It looks great, and fits my cell perfectly since it has the magnetic disc on it to attach so I do not have to hold it. The purple one I got looks beautiful and so far durable as I can tell, but I only used it about 3 times, and received compliments all around.

Genius invention

I spend a lot of time by the pool and as a realtor, I need to be on my phone a lot. Yes, even on vacation. The sun glare makes it hard to do or see anything on my phone. This invention is perfect! I know it may seem silly but it really works! It allows me to see everything needed and work from my phone. Also my phone doesn't over heat from being in the direct sun. Even when I'm not working but want my phone out, I have it shaded by the umbrella. The amount of people who walk by and comment about my phone umbrella and how smart of an idea it is… I can't even count. The value is great. The magnet fits and is super strong, it never pops off. I bought the black but would likely buy more colors.

So cute!

My umbrella arrived today and I immediately put it on my phone. There were no instructions and I scanned the QR code on the box, but it would not open the website so I just figured it out myself.
I needed to put the magnetic circle on the outside of my phone case and I was worried it wouldn't stick or when I took off the umbrella it would come off, but I am thrilled. It did not budge. I have taken the umbrella off and on several times and it seems to be holding tightly.
I love that the umbrella bends so that I can change its position in relation to the sun. (I do wish you came in other colors such as red.)
Overall, I love this little umbrella!
