Dimples adds four physical buttons on your Android device

The pits are available in different colors, maybe even that coincides with your device. Dimples

I like the tactile buttons, the kind that give me a piece of the answer, if I push them and see in the dark. (Example: if I want to enable Siri, while my phone in my coat pocket, in the car I find this iPhone just by touching the home button.)

But missing the most Android phones (a notable exception, the Samsung Galaxy series) Save physical buttons for power and volume. Wouldn't it be cool if you could just hit some extras?

Dimples

You can; It's called dimples. This deceptively simple sticker about the size of a small patch adds four programmable buttons for Android phones and tablets. Now apply it to the back of your device or case (as long as it is not metal) and then using the dimple app you can set up the buttons.

There is just a hook, at least on paper: pits near field communication, or NFC, a feature required don't any phone or Tablet has. (NFC world has a fairly comprehensive list of where to do that.)

On the back when your device has, you are golden. Dimples requires no battery of own, instead relying on the magical power that emanates from the NFC. (Who would have thought, am I correct?) In a similar way it uses NFC functionality, not Bluetooth or Wi-Fi for their very.

The four keys can be programmed for a variety of functions. Listed examples on the Groove Web site: favorite apps to start music playback, which turn flashlight on, call a contact, turn off Bluetooth, and so on.

Indiegogo campaign in the sale will be in August with a kick-off may 6 expected to be dimpled. Early risers will be for anywhere from $15 to $27, with an expected $29-sale price can get. Update: The Indiegogo campaign is now live.

I don't even use an Android phone now, and I want one of them completely. If nothing else, proves to be something that I was not previously sold the value of NFC technology. Their thoughts?
