iPhone users...
I am looking for a product I saw somewhere on Instagram. It plugs into your phones’s charging port so that your charger goes in sideways and not straight up and down.
I was thinking this would be perfect for scrolling in bed. I rest my phone on my stomach and it breaks my charging cords over time.
Anyone know what I am talking about?
What would you call this?

Thank you! That is not what I saw, but it will work.
I do not know why I didn’t think of calling it that!

I love mine. I use it on my iPad in bed. You can get them on Amazon.

I have used a few different brands and liked them well enough. Then I found this one on Amazon and like it better than all of the others. It is a U-shaped connector that holds quite strongly. My previous chargers did not hold onto my phone or iPad nearly as well as this one. I accidentally knocked my phone off the table and fortunately, it was plugged into the charger. The charger held tightly and my phone stopped about an inch above the hard tile floor. I don't doubt that it would have shattered the screen. I like that I can prop my phone or iPad up on a little bed table on my lap and the charging cord will not get damaged at all. www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08GHX8P5R/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 |

Another option would be the Anker brand braided charging cords. I have had mine for years and never had a single one break. I have used them (for iPad as I’m new to iPhones) in bed, in the car for long trips, etc. DH has yet to break his C charging cords, which is a minor miracle as he used to constantly go through them. eta: here is a link to one of them I have. |

This is not a thing I knew existed, but it is definitely a thing that I need! Thanks to OP for posting and for all the peas who provided links!

You people ARE enablers! Need a new charging cable for my Kindle as laying it on my Pillow Pal has has damaged the old one. Found a 90 degree one, thanks to this thread.
