Flic Button For Smartphones Unlocks All Sorts Of Possibilites

There are plenty of options available out there to users who want a remote button for their smartphone. Well for those who are still seeking that perfect button, perhaps you can add Flic to that list. As you can see in the video above, Flic is a button designed for smartphones that can accomplish many things.

For example a single press can execute a particular command, a double press a different command, and a press and hold will yield a different function as well, all of which will be up to you to decide for yourself. Now the more obvious uses for Flic would be to let it double up as a remote shutter for your phone’s camera, which is possible.

However based on the video, it seems that Flic can be so much more. It could be used to send out an emergency text message to friends with your GPS location, or it can also be used to make a call to a preset number. It can also be used to set your phone’s navigation to preset coordinates, and also send messages while you’re driving to let the other person know you’re not free to talk to text, all with a touch of a button.

It can also be used with home automation devices, like smart light bulbs where you can adjust its brightness or turn it on and off with a click or double click – the possibilities are endless! The Flic Indiegogo project has managed to surpass its original funding of $80,000 and if you’d like to pledge your support anyway, head on over to its Indiegogo page for the details.
