A few months ago, Scott Yu showcased a phone dock inspired by Dieter Rams' iconic DN40 digital clock.

That got me inspired to create my own version, featuring a wireless charger from IKEA. The charger is integrated into a panel that slides into a slot within the dock's body. Before assembling, the cable is routed through a hole in the back for a clean and functional setup.

Printed with Prusament PLA Galaxy Black & Prusament PETG Orange.

To top it off, I even developed my own Android docking app — because, why not? :D

That's awesome! Any chance you would release the docking app?

[–] seasick 3 points 3 days ago (3 children)

Maybe. Currently its just in a private GitHub repository. Would you want to install it from Play Store or be able to build and install yourself?

[–] imjustjealous 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Whatever works for you. I'm fine with building myself, but an apk release would be more accessible.

You could even link it with the STL so people could find it as a complete package!

Obtanium is fine no need for playstore
