How to make clear "magsafe" case s-pen friendly?

I upgraded to the 26 ultra from 23 ultra. I like the color of the phone, so I wanted a clear case and bought a "magsafe" one off Amazon, and then got a magsafe compatible pop socket for easy swapping.

Idk why I didn't think of the s-pen being affected by the magnetic pop socket. I have to remove it to use the s-pen, which to me defeats the purpose of me even having it lol.

I read about getting an insert of some sort to protect the s pen, but are there any recommendations on exactly what I can do to have a fully functional s pen, the magsafe case/pop socket, without obstructing the whole back of the phone?

First time posting in the community at all I believe, so apologies if I missed any important posting guidelines. I did try to search the community for answers first.

@statiemarie18 The issue is that the magnetic waves from the magsafe case are interfering with the S Pen operation. You will either need to remove the magnet, block the magnetic waves from the case (i.e. metal insert between phone and case), or increase the distance between the magnet and the digitizing layer under the phone screen (i.e. insert between phone and case) to some safe distance.

Yes I know. I'm looking for recommendations on something like a metal insert. I don't want to just slip any old piece of metal in there lol. But I'm not sure what is ideal. I figured there's something on the market someone could point me to so I can order it.

I got a Spigen case with magsafe magnets in it on Amazon. No complications with it interfering with the SPen
