400 million old or idle iPads
You own an iPad, it might be old or seldom used.
You are not alone.
Globally, there are approximately 400 million old or idle iPads;
This represents a tremendous waste.
This is why we make iFramix.

What's iFramix?
It comprises three parts: Wood Frame Kit +Charging Module + Specialized apps.

70% of the processes are completed by hand.
Selected solid wood
lightweight and aesthetically pleasing.
Hinged assembly
Opens and closes in one second, making it easy to insert and remove your iPad.
Concealed charging slot
Ensures the frame's overall beauty and tidiness.
Cable storage
Ensures smoother cable routing.
Support stand
Can be placed horizontally or vertically.
Wall-mountable
Easy to operate
You can turn the iPad on and off without opening the frame, and the rear camera is not obstructed.
iPad holder spacer
We have designed spacers in various thicknesses to accommodate all iPad sizes, ensuring a precise fit and stability within the frame.
White cardstock
Used in conjunction with the frame, white cardstock enhances the aesthetic presentation of the iPad. With a thickness of 1mm, we have designed nine sizes of white cardstock to accommodate all iPad models.
Function 1: Adapter
The two ports are at a 90-degree angle, enabling perfect concealment within the slot; iCharguard comes in two models: 30-pin and Lightning, and will soon support iPads with Type-C ports.
Function 2: Monitor and control charging progress
For iPad 1/2/3/4/Mini1, due to the lower iOS versions on these models, the iCharguard cannot directly read the iPad's battery level. Instead, it monitors changes in charging voltage and current and uses machine learning to estimate the iPad's battery status. To ensure the iPad remains powered, iCharguard mostly maintains the battery level between 99-100%, achieving a dynamic balance to maximize battery protection.
For other iPad models that can install the iFramix HD app, iCharguard can accurately read the iPad's battery level via iFramix App. It starts charging when the battery drops below 30% and stops charging when the battery exceeds 95%.
Challenging App Development Process
Due to Apple's varying support for the highest iOS versions across different iPad models, we cannot use a single solution to accommodate all iPad models; therefore, we developed three sets of software to match iPads from different generations.
- Since the iPad 1 can only support up to iOS 5 and its technical architecture is completely different from subsequent iPad models, we developed a web-based application specifically for the iPad 1 to enable the digital photo album feature.
- This feature is implemented via the Safari browser.
- To cover the menu bar of the Safari browser, we widened the width of the white cardboard; we also provide larger window cardboards as backups.
We might be one of the only teams in the world still developing apps for the iPad 1.
For the iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, and iPad Mini 1 models,
the highest supported iOS versions are iOS 9 or iOS 10, and they cannot download any new apps.
Therefore, the features we develop need to be implemented based on the Dolphin browser.
For models other than iPad 1, 2, 3, 4, and Mini 1, the iFramix App can be downloaded directly from the App Store of iPad to access all its features.
Apps for iPhone and Android
We developed Android and iPhone versions of the iFramix App to enable control of iPads.
This means that we have developed a total of five Apps(or web application) to help users better utilize your iPads, and all these Apps are free of charge.
Third-Party Apps
Our own software may have limited features, but don't feel restricted. You can also make use of iPad's built-in apps, or third-part App
