The Flashr iPhone case steps up to inform users through the iOS ‘LED Flash for Alerts’ feature, for times when important notifications go unseen because of silly reasons like the handset being face down. However, the Kickstarter project will be developed exclusively for iPhone 4 and iPhone 4S.
Unlike most smartphones, the iPhone handsets don’t really feature a status LED to notify users about any incoming calls, texts or even emails. Devices that offer this highlight keep it minimal, down to a tiny dot blinking on the front panel, indicating new arrivals. This poses a problem when the phone is placed face down and to overcome it, the case radiates light along the frame line and even at the back panel so that it can be viewed from any possible angle.
With respect to built-in applications like Twitter and Facebook or any such apps that offer push notification settings, the sheath instantly alerts users about recent posts, comments and much more. In order to activate the casing’s LED feature, users will first have to turn on the ‘LED Flash Alert’ option available in the accessibility settings. On the technical front, the chassis consists of three components, namely, an Outer Case, a Glow Frame and a Reflect Plate placed one above the other, in that order.
Potential buyers can pick up each component in five different color options with a total of 125 promising spectral combinations. Currently, the website needs to collect a wholesome amount of approximately $64,000 to begin production. Backers still have a month to fund the venture with a minimum $1 pledge.
Once the goal is accomplished, the Flashr iPhone case is scheduled to commence shipping in October this year. The ‘Early Bird Special’ deal offers the cover with a custom color combination choice to those who pledge $30.
