[0001] The present invention relates to a receiving device for a mobile phone for a motor vehicle, comprising at least two retaining clips arranged such that they can move relative to one another and are designed to receive and hold the mobile phone, wherein the mobile phone is arranged in the receiving device and the receiving device can be arranged on an instrument panel or a center console of the motor vehicle.

[0002] Many drivers in the US and China do not use the navigation and media functions of the vehicle's MMI (Human Machine Interface) while driving. Instead, they often use the driver's mobile phone, which is paired with the vehicle. However, connection problems often arise between the mobile phone and the vehicle's MMI.

[0003] Furthermore, MMI software is often outdated because it's difficult to update. Mobile phone software, on the other hand, is usually up-to-date. However, operating the mobile phone doesn't provide haptic feedback like operating a switch panel or an MMI display.

[0004] Another current problem is that when a mobile phone is mounted on a mount near the dashboard or control panel in a vehicle, access to the dashboard is often at least partially blocked. This obscures vehicle controls, such as the MMI, climate controls, and switch panel, making them unusable. Furthermore, air vents are often covered, rendering them less than fully functional.

[0005] From document EP 1 691 263 A1 a display device is known which both displays visual information and serves as a mechanical actuator for generating input signals.

[0006] From the document DE 10 2006 021 459 A1 a holding device for a beverage container or a small electrical appliance is known, with at least one clamping element which can be displaced by at least one drive between a clamping position in which it clamps the beverage container or the small electrical appliance in the holding device, and a removal position in which the clamping element does not clamp the beverage container or the small electrical appliance.

[0007] From the document US 9 080 714 B2, adjustable mounting systems and methods for portable devices are known.

[0008] From the document DE 10 2016 102 031 A1 a holding device for fastening a mobile communication device to a vehicle with a fastening geometry that can be arranged on the vehicle is known.

[0009] The object of the present invention is therefore to provide a recording device which provides an additional operating functionality, the functionality of which can be adapted to a respective size of a recorded mobile terminal.
