I like how it aligns itself to the device and how you can fold it into a stand. Only problem is I don&#8217;t have an iPad so I&#8217;ve never had much reason to own one. But with the TidyTilt, a Kickstarter project from a pair of Chicago-based design students, I may finally be able to make that dream a reality (short of, you know, actually buying an iPad).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The TidyTilt, much like the Smart Cover, is a tri-folding magnetic cover for the back of the iPhone 4\/4S. You might think covering the back is pointless, but the TidyTilt aims to serve a slightly different purpose from it&#8217;s larger cousin. Besides turning into a stand, it also acts as a magnetic mount and keeps your cables organized (and we all know how much of a pain tangled headphones are). Here, just watch the video.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"TidyTilt - earbud cord wrap, kickstand, and mount for iPhone 4S\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/u1Lt7jeydEA?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For just $19, you can get your own in either blue, green, pink, or black. The designers hoped to raise $10,000, but are well beyond that goal by now (at the time of writing, they&#8217;re just shy of $180k). A few of those use-cases seem a bit tenuous (the multiplayer see-saw, for example) but I still think it&#8217;s awesome and am pre-ordering one ASAP. If you&#8217;re into the idea too, you&#8217;ve got until January 29th to make your pledge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Source: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kickstarter.com\/projects\/1498649420\/tidytilt-for-iphone\">TidyTilt Kickstarter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Transform your iPhone 4\/4S with TidyTilt: Magnetic cover, stand, &#038; cable organizer in one!
