Where to put it
Three rules for any foldable.
Back panel
Attach IMStick to the flat back, not across the hinge, so the phone folds freely.
Clear of screens
On Z Flip8, stay below the cover screen. On Z Fold8 and Z Fold8 Ultra, stay below the camera bump.
Quick check
Fold and unfold the phone once with IMStick attached, then mount it.

How to:
1. Snap IMStick Pro onto a Qi2 magnetic case, or place a metal plate from the box inside the case or on its back first.
2. Keep it on the flat back panel, away from the hinge. On Z Flip8, stay below the cover screen.
3. Fold and unfold once to check the fit, then bend the wires into a stand for video calls.
Linky, Keeper and Locky fit too
Linky sits between your phone and its case, so it fits any phone in a case. Keeper and Locky connect to Linky, not to the phone, so they fit wherever Linky does.
Linky
Sits between your phone and its case, loop outside. Slip a finger or wrist through it whenever you move, scroll or shoot.
Keeper
Clips to a bag, a belt loop or a backpack strap. Your phone attaches through Linky and stays put.
Locky
Sticks to a clean, smooth surface like a car dashboard, a wall or a desk. Dock your phone through Linky, hands-free.

Foldable questions
Do Galaxy Z Fold8 and Z Flip8 have built-in magnets?
No. They support Qi2 wireless charging, but the magnets are not inside the phone. A Qi2 magnetic case adds them.
Which case do I need for IMStick Pro?
Samsung's own Magnet Case for your model, or any case sold as Qi2 magnetic or MagSafe-compatible. If a magnetic case came with your phone, it works too.
Can I use IMStick without a magnetic case?
Yes. Place one of the included metal plates inside the case or on the back of the case, and any IMStick holds.
Will it hold an unfolded Z Fold8 Ultra?
Yes. The Z Fold8 Ultra weighs about 215 g, and IMStick Pro holds up to 4 kg.
Will IMStick scratch my phone?
No. IMStick attaches to the case or the plate, and its surface is smooth.
