Pressy, An Android Accessory Adds A Physical Multi-Function Button To The Devices

Pressy, a new third-party Android accessory will now be able to do works like open up your camera app and fire off a shot with just one simple click, filling the requirement of seeing fewer physical buttons on smartphones.

Pressy is a tiny physical button that fits into your phone’s standard 3.5mm headphone jack. Simply plug it in, download the Pressy companion app, and you can activate different functions by simply clicking the button.  Out of the box it comes with three preset actions, allowing you to turn on your phone’s flashlight with one short click, toggle silent mode with a long click, and snap a photo with a double-click.

The PRESSY

The Pressy app is designed to work on all Android devices running version 2.3 and up, which should include nearly every user out there at this point. Using the app, you can assign different actions to different button sequences, instantly turning on your flashlight, taking a picture or doing pretty much anything else you phone can do. Pressy also offers an API so developers can use the button within their own apps, and comes with a keychain holster for when you want to use your headphone jack for your actual headphones.

With Pressy you can assign different actions to different button sequences, instantly turning on your flashlight, etc.

Pressy is described by its creators as the “almighty Android button,” quickly hit its $40,000 goal, raising $60,000 in its first day. With 45 days left to go, Pressy has already raised over $200,000.

Many of the “early bird” Kickstarter deals for Pressy are already sold out, but you can still grab one for as little as $17, or $20 if you want the convenient key chain holder as well. With funding in place, the Pressy team should have no issues getting the product manufactured in the 4 month time-frame they have set for themselves.
