Product Description

The WINGStand is a lightweight, portable clip that transforms an Apple wireless keyboard into a dock for use with a tablet or smartphone. It is compatible with all models of iPhone and iPad and any other bluetooth compatible tablet or smartphone of thickness less than or equal to 0.5. It also accommodates most cases including the Apple Smart Cover and the first generation iPad case. It is manufactured in the United States from industrial strength, recycled ABS plastic. With two components that snap together when not in use, it's small footprint makes the device extremely portable. Invented by Stanford student Daniel Haarburger, the WINGStand demonstrates how modern technology is reinventing the design process. Drafted in a dorm room, prototyped using 3D printers, then launched using a crowd funding platform called Kickstarter, the WINGStand was realized in less than five months. Better still, it was the product of a whole community of technologists. In less than 7 weeks, over 2,000 people came together to make the product a reality. Design, simplicity, and community are baked into our DNA.

Great product. An absolute must have for iPad users that prefer using a keyboard, or if you just need another way to prop it up to watch video, etc.

A great way to get to use your iPad with the Apple Keyboard. To bad Apple never thought of it.

Simple and well made.

I love the simplicity of the WINGStand, and it fits the Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard perfectly (which I already owned). The two clips attach to each other, and take no space. The WINGStand makes an elegant, and portable, iPad desktop solution. Turned a lot of heads when people saw me working without a lot of wires and bulky equipment. I will be buying more for gifts, now that I have used it for myself. I did have to revert to the Apple magnetic smartcover, as the aftermarket cases were too bulky to work along with the WINGStand.
