Bracket for Smartphone to take videos?

Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Bracket for Smartphone to take videos?

i tried the Velocity bracket and it worked ok. It fits my Note 4 and holds it in tight, videos come out great but I can only use it on my handlebars and have to remove the clip on bars. I'm looking for one that will swivel so that i can mount it on the seat stay and get a view from the rear or on the clip on bars and swivel it around so that it points forward.
Anyone else doing it? what bracket did you find?

Not to derail this, but I'd think just buying a dedicated action camera (doesn't have to be a gopro, there are cheaper options that still record HD with acceptable image stabilization and high fps) is better than using a phone. The battery on your phone won't drain, it probably comes boxed with dedicated mounts that are very secure, it won't act like a wind blocker like a note 4 would if it's positioned facing forward under your bars, ect.
