COMITOK Magnetic Auto Face Tracking Stand MOTA Tripod with Remote Controller for iPhone Follo…

Level Up Your Content with the COMITOK Magnetic Auto Face Tracking Stand

Hey everyone! If you’ve been following my journey as a content creator, you know that filming solo can be a total nightmare. Trying to keep yourself in the frame while moving around usually results in a lot of "take twos" and "take threes." That’s why I was so excited to get my hands on the COMITOK Magnetic Auto Face Tracking Stand (MOTA Tripod).

I’ve been testing this little gadget for a week now, and I’m ready to share the tea on whether it actually lives up to the hype for TikTokers, Reels creators, and vloggers.

What’s in the Box?

The first thing I noticed was how sleek the design is. It’s compact but feels sturdy. In the box, you get:

• The 360° Auto-Tracking Base
• The Magnetic (MagSafe compatible) Mount
• A handy Bluetooth Remote Controller
• Charging Cable and Manual

The Magic of MagSafe

As an iPhone user, the magnetic feature is a total game-changer. Most tracking stands use those annoying spring-loaded clamps that always seem to press the volume buttons on my phone. With the COMITOK, my iPhone snaps right on securely. If you don't have a MagSafe phone, it usually comes with a metal ring you can stick to your case, but for iPhone 12 and up, it’s seamless.

Performance: Does it actually follow you?

The short answer: Yes!

What I love most is that this stand is app-free. You don’t need to download some sketchy third-party app to make it work. It has a built-in camera sensor that detects your face and body. I tested it while doing a "Get Ready With Me" video and a quick dance transition, and it kept up with my movements 360 degrees without any jerky lag.

The Remote Control Advantage

The included remote controller is the "chef's kiss" for solo creators. Being able to start and stop my recording from across the room saves so much time in the editing booth because I don't have to trim out the first five seconds of me walking to the camera.

Pros & Cons

Pros:

• No App Required: Works directly with your native camera or apps like Instagram and TikTok.
• Strong Magnet: My phone felt very secure even during fast movements.
• Portable: Fits easily in a backpack or even a large purse.
• 360° Rotation: Smooth tracking with no blind spots.

Cons:

• Speed: If you move extremely fast (like sprinting), it might lose you for a second, but for standard vlogging, it’s perfect.
• Vertical Only: It’s optimized for vertical content, which is great for social media, but keep that in mind if you're a traditional horizontal filmmaker.

Final Verdict

If you are a solo creator tired of propping your phone up against a water bottle or constantly adjusting your tripod, the COMITOK Magnetic Auto Face Tracking Stand is a must-have. It’s essentially like having a cameraman that lives on your desk. It has definitely earned a permanent spot in my gear bag!
