We talk a lot about the new iPhone but we cannot forget about the legendary devices of the apple brand. And is that iPods, for example, were Apple's flagship devices not so many years ago ... Now a developer / designer wants to take us back in time with a new application that brings the mythical wheel of the iPod Classic back to our iPhone. After the jump we tell you more about this new app that will arrive in the coming months ...

As you can see in the tweet he has published, the result of this new app that emulates an iPod Classic is at least curious. And it is that there are many memories that it will bring to all of us who have had an iPod in our life, the mythical device of the boys of the block that has given us so many moments of music. Where did the inspiration come from? Apparently Elvin Hu, the designer of this app, was always a fan of Apple, and until recently he made iPhone templates with Ferrero Rocher boxes until he had the chance to develop this app. The App as you have seen is very simple, everything is centered on the famous iPod click wheel which will also have haptic responsesDo you remember the vibration that the iPod made when we moved with the wheel?
Above, as you can see in the video of the tweet, we have a cover flow, How long ago did we lose Apple's cover flow?, and that's all in the app, it doesn't have more but it has that nostalgia for the old iPods. Hu is now awaiting Apple's approval to publish this app on the Apple Store., and he himself knows that the publication is not going to be easy at all: he has to deal with Apple's patents in relation to the click wheel ...
Especially it will be difficult when he himself has said that it is a personal project ...
