iPod touch still can pair with AirPods Max or any bluetooth speaker I know, its speakers aren’t a big deal, and the screen can get very reflective, but I still can take advantage of about an hour of listening time or so. I can also watch video clips and movies with my iPod touch. You just have to scroll through your favorite albums. At the time, I didn’t like it, but now I think I can truly appreciate it. Vaccine‘s and Haim‘s first albums, Paul McCartney’s New, and, wow, just got distracted by the cover flow feature. In 2022, I still can take advantage of the “Music” and “Video” apps by redownloading my favorite tunes. Luckily, I have bought a few tracks when I was a teenager and a few movies as well. With the third-generation iPod touch relying less on the Mac, I was just a tap away from my next favorite movie or album. In a period of streaming services and dozens of subscriptions, I’m reminded of the importance of the iTunes Store back in the early 2010s. It’s time to discover what I can still do with the third-generation iPod touch The iTunes Store is your best friend My photos have now been all erased, and I still have 39 notes on my Notes app. Some of the stocks apps don’t work anymore and, somehow, my Twitter app is trapped in a 2013 timeline with some of my friends complaining about random stuff. Then, when I can finally see the home screen, I’m reminded of what enchanted me about Apple products with its skeuomorphic apps stuck on iOS 5.1.1 When I slide to unlock it, I’m reminded of my Beatlemania period when I was 14 years old, as a 20- something Paul McCartney looks at me. My iPod touch’s volume buttons don’t work anymore, but the Home and power buttons are still just fine. There’s a nostalgia about holding this 3.5-inch device with a now oxidated stainless steel back.
To write this story, I had to wait over an hour until it decided to properly turn on, but it is always worth it. Now, in 2022, you can still take advantage of this device – sort of.Įvery now and then I decide to turn on my 13-year-old iPod touch, and every time it gets trickier. With up to 64GB of storage, the iPhone counterpart didn’t have a camera, nor a fancy processor, but somehow its 3.5-inch multitouch screen conquered a new generation of Apple users – myself included. Thirteen years ago, Apple unveiled the third-generation iPod touch.
