Introducing TinyPod: The Adorable Apple Watch Accessory
The Apple Watch has often been overlooked by modding enthusiasts, despite creative transformations like necklaces, sleeve armbands, and even hiding spots for AirPods. But now, a company has introduced TinyPod, an accessory that turns your Apple Watch into a miniature iPod Classic. This nostalgic transformation blends old-school charm with modern functionality.
What is TinyPod?
TinyPod is an accessory that fits over your Apple Watch, making it look and function like an iPod Classic. It features a working scroll wheel that is more convenient than the Apple Watch’s tiny crown. The design is sleek and polished, reminiscent of official Apple products, but it comes from an independent company.
Key Features of TinyPod
Functional Scroll Wheel: The TinyPod’s wheel directly interacts with the Apple Watch crown, allowing you to scroll naturally through the OS.
Full Apple Watch Functionality: It handles calls, messages, emails, news, weather, and music, just like your Apple Watch.
Compatibility: It works with mainline Apple Watches, the SE model, and the Ultra trim, compatible with 40/41mm, 45/44mm, and 49mm versions.
Two Variants: The standard TinyPod costs $80, while the version for Apple Watch Ultra is $90. A simpler version without the scroll wheel, TinyPod Lite, is available for $30.
Additional Details: The design ensures that features like Namedrop, contactless payments, and magnetic charging are not hindered. The accessory also claims to extend battery life by turning off wrist detection.
Availability: TinyPod is set to ship this summer. As the release date approaches, many are eager to try out this unique blend of nostalgia and modern tech, even if it might end up as just another gadget collecting dust.
TinyPod combines the best of both worlds, offering a nostalgic nod to the iPod Classic while maintaining the advanced features of the Apple Watch. It’s a charming addition for anyone looking to add a touch of retro flair to their modern device.
