Halo Back, is a screen protector dubbed the 'World's First Smart Screen Protector'. It adds a back button to your iPhone that can be easily reached with your thumb.

Halo Back is the first smart screen protector in the world. The invisible back button let your iPhone go back easily. With this little magic, you can operate your phone with a single hand.

To enable this functionality, a circuit layer is added to a traditional glass screen protector. It helps to lead current when you press lower left corner of the screen, resulting in a press of the back button at the top left.

Halo Back has already been successfully funded on KickStarter and deliveries to customers are expected in August.

There is still 18 days left for your to pledge $17 to get one of the first ones. It's available for both the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.

Take a look at the video below for more details...

I like year 2006 when their was no smartphones and life was easy no ads no nothing. Look where are we going

gamerscul9870 - May 25, 2015 at 10:19pm

2006 ones were hard to control, not much breakthrough is functionality, not even the cameras were average. Look how much different that was.

Omg! Too many ads in this app now. I understand you need ads to make some money, but get them to work properly as they keep bugging out when I scroll down before the ad pops up. I have been using this app for years now and will probably delete it now. Was fun while it lasted.

Awesome product! Backing it right now! This is even cheaper than a normal screen protector!

You know you swipe from the left edge to the right and get the same effect right? Useless.

First I thought it's a really cool and useful thing to use but then I realized I have a left hand.

DeathKissesLife - May 25, 2015 at 7:27am

Cool idea! This would be useless if Apple had relocated the back button to the bottom left in iPhone 6 & 6 plus with iOS 8, instead they introduced 'Reachability'. Seriously, Apple never optimised iOS 8 and its apps for bigger iPhones. It's the same OS for both smaller and larger iPhones and even for iPads. I do like the swipe back and forth gestures over the edges because I don't want the back button to take any valuable space on the screen (but this might not be so practical with iPhone 6 plus, which is too big to reach the left edges with thumb).

Though the screen looks darker outdoors with the screen protector.

gamerscul9870 - May 25, 2015 at 3:33pm

Yes seriously. Apple did what they could to keep the one hand use function while giving what fans wanted.

rahilxx98 - May 25, 2015 at 4:07am

I don't have screen protectors on my iPhone, nor do I own a protective case. I like my s*** naked. Ya feel me?

gamerscul9870 - May 24, 2015 at 10:54pm

Why do that when I can just use my other hand to swipe back or just tap it if it's that much of a hassle.

gVes - May 24, 2015 at 10:33pm

This is actually pretty cool. The 6 is a bit a an awkward thing to use specially with one hand.

Android has had a back button since 2009. Just saying. Not a fan of this idea but kudos to the business minded people trying to make their ideas come to life

Stupid.. We have gestures since iOS7

Woz - May 24, 2015 at 8:58pm

This is so stupid. If God wanted a back button on the iPhone he would have made it on the iPhone.

Mark - May 24, 2015 at 8:44pm

Cool. But is it one of those "unreakable" screen protectors?
