Default Anyone owns a Magview or something similar?

I am looking to buy a reliable and easy to use gizmo to be able to use my Iphone to tak evideos through my spotting scope. Have tried a few cheaper gizmos but none has been reliable. A friend is raving about Magview but I find the $180 USD price rather steep. Any suggestions out there?

My son just bought a Magview, it is awesome and extremely simple. Not sure if the scope cap would be great in rain or not but it works great otherwise.

I've used a tines up phone cam for a few years now. They have branched off and are now under their own phone cam umbrella.

I see they are now changing up their mounts to make them more universal, but compared to the magview I think they are still lacking in that new system, but they are trying. I have the older compression adapter on a 2nd phone case that I swap into when I know that I may need to use it. It mounts on the spotter or bino quickly.

That looks like a decent product, and may look at it closer when its time to upgrade mine.
