10 Strange iPhone apps and accessories you probably don’t need

There’s probably a ton of useless gadgets we’ve encountered in our lives, but sometimes technology has a way of complicating things more than simplifying them.

If you have an iPhone you know there are plenty of cases, docking stations, chargers and other accessories you can purchase to spice things up. There’s also a plethora of apps available for download. Which are actually useful?

Here is a combination of 10 accessories and applications for your iPhone that are pretty strange and unnecessary.

Accesories
 
1. Umbilical cord iPhone charger

Yes- it’s a real thing. Japanese artist, Mio I-zawa, created this charger a few years back that resembles an umbilical cord and even moves and vibrates. The design allows the charger to consume half of your iPhone, in essence creating a “womb” for it. 

2. Phone Fingers

Phone Fingers were actually voted one of the worst inventions in 2010 by Time magazine. Basically they’re latex fingers that you place on your actual fingers to avoid any smudges on your phone screen. The company even tried to accommodate those with rather large fingers by creating a size chart to help buyers estimate their finger size.

3. Hand iPhone case

Pretty self-explanatory? It’s an iPhone case in the shape of an actual hand. It’s pretty big and you may even wonder why you’d need this accessory. If you want someone to hold hands with, it might come in “handy”.

4. Nose iPhone case

If you miss the days of picking your nose, here’s the solution- get yourself an iPhone case with a giant nose on it. Then you can spend all the time you want picking your nose without any judgment.

5. iPhone TV hat

Watch a lot of movies on your iPhone? Tired of holding your iPhone during these movies? The TV Hat was introduced as a solution to that inconvenience. It looks like a baseball cap with a really long visor componenet and a hood so that you can attach your iPhone to the end of it and voila, you a have a dark movie room and hand-free viewing capabilities. It just might make you look a little silly.
