I bought a cheap one from eBay after seeing how well a screen on a spotter worked at the range one day.

Just chucked it in the things box, and never even pulled it out to test, lol

A Randy Newberg vid popped up on my feed and not seen one of his vids in ages.
He takes his brother Moose hunting in Alaska.

One of the first ads was for a high-class type of phone cover that can be left on the phone, but a square section can be locked on, in front of the lens section, and it looks to magnet straight onto the spotting scope.

Also an app, so you can quickly do all the other phone hunting apps, and switch between them.

It is likely to be in the upper price range, but it looks like a good thing.
