Did your LifeProof phone mount break? Despite the name, LifeProof does not actually have lifetime warranties on any of their products. You might have a warranty claim available if something went wrong in the manufacturing process, so you might be able to get a new mount, or your old one fixed for free. This wikiHow article teaches you about the LifeProof warranty that comes with every LifeProof product.
