The BMW holder for Apple iPad™ allows you to comfortably use your iPad in landscape or portrait mode from the back seat. The removable clothes hanger ensures crease-free transport of clothing and can be used away from the car.

BMW holder for Apple iPad™.

Watch videos, check e-mails or surf the Internet: whatever you wish to do with your iPad, the BMW holder for Apple iPad™ lets you find the right position with ease and leaves your hands free.

Both modes allow you to rotate the holder through 90° in either direction to find the best position for the iPad and use it in landscape and portrait position. Thanks to the stand supplied, you can enjoy the benefits of the BMW holder for Apple iPad™ outside of your BMW, too.
