I have a protective device that fully encases my iPad Air2. It is called an OtterBox Defender. Will this device support it?

Probably not, I can't use my iPhone with an otterbox defender, and the 30 to 30 extenders are crap, and won't support the added weight of the iPad. Keep in mind that this is still a 30-prong interface, and you'd need a 30 to lightning adapter for iPad 4th gen and above, and also iPhone 5 and above. Hope that helps. :)

The otter box makes the iphone to thick to fit the speaker. I often have to remove my otter box to use. I purchased this device almost three years ago. Maybe the have since modified the design.

I use it with the ipad air & it works great. You have to stretch it (like a rubber band) and it holds on even when I test it by shaking to make sure it will stay on. It has not stretched out & easy enough to remove. I don't tnink the iPad Air 2 is much thinner so it should work. Also, it is easy to keep your grip on the bands ( where you place your fingers, it does not lie flat against the iPad).

I m not sure but I have the defender case for my iPhone 4S and it has a thin plastic screen that goes over the screen. So maybe the defender iPad case has the same. I like mine without the plastic screen cover. I always slip the flex cover back on my iPad when I'm finished using it.

I have not directly tested this unit with the new iPad Air, but being an engineer and knowing the way this unit is designed, it should work. Worst case scenario is that some single sided adherent foam rubber padding might need to be added depending on the position needed to be used.

Definitely. My kids have used my ipad and I am so glad the otterbox defender is on board.

It depends on the thickness of your case.Normally it will not support an Ipad with a case on it.Since it can only support a tablet with 13mm thickness.So your case must be really thin.

I'm sorry Rob, I'm not sure. I can only tell you that it does not fit my iPad 2 with a thin zagg shield. If the iPad Air is significantly thinner, the clasps might not hold it tightly enough for you to feel that it is secure. Both the Apple Store and Sam Ash carry this product, perhaps, they might know more.

This item has been around for a couple of years now. It is stated to fit the iPad2. Nowhere does it indicate being upgraded to fit the "Air" which has slightly different dimensions (smaller). I would NOT take the chance.

yes its too loose for the ipad air 2. I have mine in a case so i just hang it over this and it works but not outside the case its too big a holder for it.

The "jaws" of the clamping mechanism that secure the iPad in place open to a maximum of 8" wide and the jaw clamps are 1 1/4" tall. So as long as the exterior dimensions of the Otterbox case are less than that it should work just fine. I originally bought 10 of these stands for a client to use with their trade show display. I liked how well they worked so we got one to use at home. Use it a lot in the kitchen while cooking. The base is very stable and the clamp works very well to hold the iPad secure. The ball joint at the base of the clamp swivels 360 so you can view your screen as portrait or landscape.

Hey L. Osborne! Im not sure. I got the LapWorks Handler for my boyfriend and he doesnt have an Otterbox for his Ipad (he should have one for protection though, lol). Im so sorry that I wasn't able to fully answer your question.

Yes I have an otterbox on both my I-pad and my other phone with it's otterbox and it works great. The only issue I have is that it's easy to loose if your always moving it and using it on different units, but that is a me issue ((-: Hope this helps.

I would think not. The dimensions are different. I think the iPad Air 2 is thinner.

It will attach well enough to hold it securely, the ipad 2 is basically the same size so the case just needs to have a grip from the frame of the holder, I use mine with a semi soft case and it's very secure, I believe the Otterbox case will secure in as well.

Yes it will work but will not fit snugly since the Air 2 is slightly slimmer than the previous model. It will still stay in the case, it will just sit a little below the plastic edge.

Eric, I don't know about the ipad air but I had great difficult getting it to accept my ipad2. The plastic clips that hold the ipad snap into place and if you insert the wrong clips they break when trying to remove them. This made me very unhappy with the product although once assembled properly it works well. The instructions that came with it are very vague. Good luck

If the defender is the big otter box then yes. Sorry, can't remember! I have dropped my iPad so many times I can't remember and it's still in perfect shape after a year. It's very light weight. I actually like it more than the otter box.
