Best way to attach phone to bike? (lemm.ee)

Hi all, I just got a new bike and I want to find a good solid way to attach my mobile phone somewhere near the stem. I want to be able to track some of my rides and use the phone for navigation sometimes too so it has to be visible & touchable wherever I mount it.

My bike (Cannondale Topstone 2 gravel) has mounts for a top tube bag, or I think I've seen some sort of secure mounts in use by folks I ride with.

What's your fave solution for this these days?

Cheers!

It is also a point of critique for quadlock (and i guess sp as well), i have been riding with my current phone attached for about 15000 km, including thousands of km on chunky surfaces, i have not had this problem, neither did i with the phones i had before. I feel very confident to continue using this system. But yeah, i guess there is a risk.

I used to have a silicon strap phone mount in the beginning, but the phone was rattling like crazy on rocky surfaces, very confident that the stem mount is much milder on the phone.
