I have an Iphone and use the armband with no issues. I use it for the gps and music. I haven't used it in the rain yet though, I will probably just use my ipod on rainy days if I run outside.0

I have the Griffin Technology Survivor case...basically at Otterbox with a clip...and I clip my iPod touch to my shorts.

I'm a walker and runner and I put it in my tunebelt or my jacket pocket.0

My armband was from ebay and cost me about $2.500

This... Made from neoprene, so my phone had never gotten wet.0 -
When i run alone, in my bra.
When i run with baby, in her stroller.0 -
Armband! Bought a cheapo on Amazon & I got what I paid for. :noway: Went to TJMaxx & found a decent Griffin model for $9.99. Works great - comfy over long sleeve or on my bare arm.0

I started with an arm band and then one day the plastic sleeve, which was attached to the arm band, came off and I noticed it had a clip on it. So I thought, "Wait a minute..." and now I attach it to my waistband on my shorts. I can feed my headphones under my shirt so they don't get in the way. More comfortable than the arm band.0

Google Tune Belt Armband these are awesome. My husband uses one and swears by it. If I start running I will get one but for now I don't need it walking. I always have a jacket with pockets.0

I just ordered an armband for running without a jacket pocket to put my iphone into. In the summer on the bike I'll have my back jersey pockets to put it in, but I also put it into a ziplock to keep it from getting sweaty (or rained on).0

Arm strap....0

I have a Tunebelt - www.tunebelt.com/ab83 - that holds my phone (a Motorola Atrix 2) perfectly, and I still can manipulate the screen while I'm running. I don't even feel it when I'm running.0

i bought on arm band from Ebay for mine, it was only about $80

I bought a runner's belt that I love. It has 2 small pockets -- one keeps my keys and lip balm, the other holds my phone. It's made of a stretchy fabric so I could probably stuff more in there, but that's all I really need.0

i put my phone in my sports bra it stays great in there lol0
-
either hold it in my hand, or armband. If you just doing exercises around the house? i would say just get the armband. most of them are universal fit and all phones will fit in it. The highest ive seen them online is for about 11 bucks.0

Personally I found the arm band quite uncomfortable. I had to tighten it so much to get it to stay up on my arm! I have a waistband which I carry my key, swipe card, iPhone and two mini bottles of water. I swivle it round so its on the small of my back, rather than on the front. I've learned to be able to grab the water bottles from behind. I don't notice it when running. It was from a cheap sports store.
This. Bought my waist pack at Walmart in the camping section for about 5 bucks! The water bottle is worthless, but even so, it's worth 5 bucks.0 -
I run with my iPhone. I have an arm band I wear. Its the best...I use my gps tracker and my iTunes and its perfect. Does your phone fit into an arm band?
I just looked up iPhone arm band holders on Amazon and they all seem to have pretty decent ratings. Which one do you use? I'm going to get one, but a recommendation would be good.
Thanks.0 -
Some interesting solutions, thanks all.
I think I will buy a decent arm band from Amazon and try again with that as thinking about it the last time I tried to use one I was probably 50lbs heavier, I may get on better with one now. Plus if it's rubbish I can always return it, Amazon are pretty good about taking things back!0 -

I have a running pack from Nathans sport. It is made of neoprene so my phone never gets wet. And it has a small outside zipped pouch and a larger pouch. I keep my ID, keys, phone, sometimes a little snack, tissue, and lip balm. I've ran 3 half marathons using it and take it for all my trianing runs. I sometimes will wear it backwards and hang the earphone cord down my back and out of the way. I really love it.0
