Tidbyt Gen 2: Sharper, crisper, clearer

About this project

Tidbyt is a retro pixel-style connected display that brings your digital life into physical space: what's playing on Spotify, what's next on your calendar, the weather, live sports scores, train times or photos of your favorite people — all glanceable without picking up your phone. The original shipped to over 5,000 backers in 2021, and tens of thousands of Tidbyts now run in homes worldwide. Gen 2 is the biggest upgrade yet: a beautifully redesigned, sharper display, new touch sensor and audio notifications, plus an app library that has grown from 13 at launch to hundreds thanks to a passionate developer community. The campaign raised $963K — 2,407% funded — with 5,335 backers.

Highlights

  • Glanceable everything: schedules, weather, scores and departures at a look — no phone required
  • Open app ecosystem: a developer community contributes hundreds of apps that keep growing
  • Major hardware upgrade: sharper display plus touch sensing and audio notifications
  • Digital life, embodied: brings the pulse of your online world back into physical space
