You can get 3D printed Garmin quarter turn male mounts and glue/tape/screw them to your phone case of choice. Something like this: https://www.shapeways.com/product/9B...-for-phone-cas
Whether you want an expensive iphone attached by a 3D printed mount that you've glued on yourself is another question.

I bought one of those mounts and I'm not crazy about it. The one I got doesn't "click" into place like my Garmin does. It works great for the trainer, but I wouldn't trust it out on the road.

Quad Lock. I just got the stem mounted one just to use on the trainer but they have an outfront mount I believe

Quad Lock is the only answer. But most will get something cheaper. When I was using the QL mount after the phone clicks is very reassuredly, I could lift the bike up by the phone/mount.
Quad Lock is what you're after.
Or head up to General Discussions and ask them. I'm sure they can tell you how to fasten an amazing mount out of old VCR parts and a vibrator or something.

Not sure I understand the question, but I have a LifeProof case for my iPhone. I got the bike mount as a gift but haven't used it because I don't use my phone to navigate (or for any other bike-related reason) on a regular basis, and there is not much real estate left on my touring bike's bars to mount the thing.

As well, I agree with smarkinson that I don't think I'd want my $600 iPhone mounted with a glue on Garmin 1/4 turn adapter.
