A gadget from the category of "smart buttons", with dimensions of 35 × 7 × 90 mm, but more than half of the length falls on the branded plastic cord. Without it, WiseButton can be worn as a badge, an exotic cufflink, or just a keychain on a keychain.

The latter, by the way, is the most recommended way so that the control panel for all kinds of electronic devices at home and in the office is not forgotten on the nightstand. Because, as conceived by the authors of the startup, this is what you will pick up most often.

The remote control is universal, compatible with arbitrary gadgets running iOS, Android, Windows phone - smartphones, laptops, tablets, etc. Let there are only 4 real buttons on the "button" itself, not counting the central on / off, it can be used, without exaggeration, very widely.

Fast forward and rewind works during video playback, presentations and manipulation of the application menu, the "photo" button can be used to activate the camera of the base device - up to 50 m. The demo application covers the most requested options, but if the popularity of WiseButton is as high as expected startup authors, they promise to write a lot of new programs.

The most useful, probably, is the fourth button "search" - it helps to find a smartphone lost somewhere in the bowels of an apartment destroyed during a party. Two-way communication, using the iPhone itself, you can find the WiseButton and the item to which this gadget is attached. The main thing is that the distance between them does not exceed 7 m - when exceeded, an unpleasant sharp sound is heard in combination with vibration, it is impossible not to pay attention. This is "anti-theft" or "anti-loss" mode, useful for those who like to leave expensive electronics in a taxi or on a restaurant table.

The required amount on Indiegogo has been collected long ago, the release and implementation of WiseButton will begin this half of the year. The cost of one "smart key" is $ 27, a wide range of colors is available. Although, in fairness, it's worth noting - in fact, the device is ideally styled to match the bright colors of the failed iPhone 5c. However, there are quite a few other models on the market that the manufacturers considered it necessary to dress in flashy colored "clothes".
