Pocket-Sized 360-Degree Motion Controller
The Joby Spin is a pocket-sized 360-degree motion controller built for smartphone creators who want dynamic motion timelapses, panoramic stills and smooth b-roll. It pairs with the GripTight PRO mount or other Joby phone mounts and attaches to supports via a universal 1/4-20 inch thread. The device is controlled through the Joby Motion app on iOS or Android.
Sustained Shooting Performance
A full charge takes 150 minutes and delivers up to 3 hours of shooting time depending on usage. The motorised rotation maintains consistent speed for timelapse and video capture across the entire session. The unit supports a payload up to 750g or 1.7 lbs, keeping larger smartphones stable during extended motion sequences without drift.
Interface and Mounting Limits
Bluetooth connectivity through the Joby Motion app provides the only control method; there is no onboard screen or physical joystick. The 1/4-20 inch mount requires a compatible tripod or support such as a GorillaPod, which is sold separately. Payloads heavier than 750g exceed the rated capacity and are not supported.
