So just bought the Osmo Mobile 2 and trying to get it set up with my S9+ (trying horizontal setup) but it's not working. I can balance it horizontally and so the screen faces the desk and it's completly balanced. But when I then try and rotate the phone upwards (so from facing down to the correct postion with camera pointing backwards and screen towards me) it just falls back down. What am I doing wrong?
(The phone has no case)
I make mine look just like what you have above. Then turn it on. I actually went as far as to download a "Level" app to make sure the phone is level when the Osmo is off. Makes my horizon level in my pictures.
