It is currently available for purchase in select countries including Australia, Canada, France, Germany, the UK, and the US. However, it has not been introduced in India.

TinyPod Apple Watch Case Features

TinyPod comes with a physical scroll wheel that uses the rotating crown on the Apple Watch to let the user navigate through the operating system (OS). Since it is simply a case for the Apple Watch, it takes all its functionalities and packages it into an iPod Classic-esque device. It is dubbed as “your phone away from phone".

According to the company, TinyPod can help users curb their phone and social media habits by allowing them to leave their smartphone at home and take the Apple Watch inside the TinyPod case instead. Users with the cellular variant of the smartwatch can make calls, respond to text messages and do more, without requiring the handset.

TinyPod says its case can offer more mileage out of the Apple Watch due to it not using the wrist detection feature.
