Need a gift for the selfie-obsessed someone in your life?
Smartphone accessory maker Gabba Goods has developed a gadget to help iPhone users take the perfect solo or group selfies without having to hold onto their phones while awkwardly attempting to press the onscreen shutter button without screwing up the shot.
#TheSelfie (the hashtag is included in the product name) looks like an old-school remote shutter release gadget that plugs conveniently into the headphone socket on any iPhone, iPad or iTouch model. The button on top of the device takes a photo in either the Apple camera or in several different iOS camera apps such as Instagram or Snapchat.
#TheSelfie comes in a variety of colors including black, pink, white, lime green and purple and retails for $19.99. It is available at the following stores: Claire’s, Charlotte Russe, Delias, Marshalls, T.J. Maxx and Francesca’s.
