1.1 Product DesignA well-designed case will securely house an Apple device while not interfering with the device's operation.Significant factors in mechanical design include access to the device's sensors, controls, and connectors.

1.1.1 Device Layouts and Dimensions for Apple DevicesCases must be designed to accommodate the full range of Apple device sizes within each product's dimensionalvariation. Dimensional drawings with tolerances for all Apple devices can be found in Device DimensionalDrawings (page 15).

1.1.2 Access to ControlsThe case must readily permit the user to access and operate the device's mechanical controls. This includesvolume and ring/silent controls, sleep/wake control, and the home button.

1.1.3 Access to the Headphone Jack and 30-pin or Lightning ConnectorThe case must provide ready access to the headphone jack. The headphone jack opening must be at least 6.0mm in diameter and at most 14.0 mm deep. At least 6.5 mm in diameter and at most 10.0 mm deep isrecommended for best compatibility with a range of headphones.

The case must also provide unobstructed access to either the 30-pin connector or the Lightning connector.

If the case is for an Apple device with the Lightning connector, the opening must be at least 12.05 mm by 6.30mm with full radii rounded edges. 13.65 mm by 6.85 mm is recommended for best compatibility with a rangeof cables and docks.

In addition, the headphone jack and 30-pin or Lightning connector openings must be designed with enoughmargin to compensate for shifting or dimensional changes of the case material.

1.1.4 Device ProtectionCases must protect the Apple device from a 1 m drop onto a hard paved surface in any device orientation.

1. Cases

Specifically, exposed glass on the Apple device must not come within 1 mm of a flat surface, such as a tableor floor, in any orientation when the case is attached. This may be achieved by either covering the exposedglass or creating features around it that will space the exposed glass at least 1 mm away from the flat surface.

1.1.5 Cover Glass ContactCases that claim compatibility with iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus should not contact the cover glass as defined intheir dimensional drawings. See iPhone 6 (page 17) and iPhone 6 Plus (page 18).

1.1.6 Dock CompatibilityFor compatibility with docks, the distance from bottom of the Apple device to the outside of a case shouldnot exceed 1.8 mm.

1.2 AcousticsThe case must not impair or degrade the acoustical performance of an Apple device.

1.2.1 Speaker and Microphone OpeningsWhen Apple devices have speakers or microphones, their locations may vary from model to model. Refer tothe dimensional drawings for various Apple devices cited in Device Layouts and Dimensions for AppleDevices (page 7). The case must not obstruct the speaker or microphone ports.

1.2.2 Speaker to Microphone CouplingThe case must not facilitate the conduction of sound from the speaker to any microphone. Such soundconduction can cause echoing in phone calls.

1.2.3 Call QualityThe case must not impair or degrade the user's experience making and receiving both audio calls over a cellularnetwork or video calls using Apple's FaceTime software. User testing must be conducted in handset,speakerphone, and headset modes of operation, to confirm that the case does not change the loudness orfrequency response of the speakers or microphones. In addition, the user must not be able to detect any sounddistortion resulting from enclosing the Apple device in the case.

1.3 SensorsSome Apple devices contain several sensors, including an ambient light sensor, a magnetic compass, a proximitysensor, an accelerometer, and a three-axis gyroscope. Cases must be designed so they do not interfere withthe operation of these sensors.

1.3.1 Ambient Light and Proximity Sensor InterferenceThe ambient light sensor and proximity sensor locations for various Apple devices are shown in the dimensionaldrawings cited in Device Layouts and Dimensions for Apple Devices (page 7). Some of the dimensionaldrawings specify a recommended keep-out area around these sensors. No material must be allowed to coverthese sensors or their keep-out areas, this includes films and privacy screens. Cases that allow the Apple deviceto slide around must not obstruct any sensors.

1.3.2 Magnetic InterferenceApple recommends avoiding the use of magnets and metal components in cases.

Cases for Apple devices must not affect the device's built-in magnetic compass (if present).

Additionally, the iPhone 6 Plus has an autofocus rear camera equipped with optical image stabilization thatcan be affected by magnets and metal components in cases and rear camera accessories. Cases and rear cameraaccessories that claim compatibility with iPhone 6 Plus must not affect operation of the autofocus rear camera.

1.3.3 Touch ID SensorCases for Apple devices must not inhibit the use of the device's Touch ID sensor (if present). See the device'sdimensional drawing for the keep-out area.

1.4 CameraThis section applies to all Apple devices that are equipped with a camera (with or without a flash). The field ofview (FOV) of the camera and the illumination provided by the flash is designed for each Apple product. It isimperative that manufacturers consult technical specifications released for each product and do not assumethese parameters are shared between products.

Images from the camera may be affected by the geometry, color and surface finish of the camera opening inthe case.

1. Cases1.3 Sensors

1.4.1 GeometryThe camera lens field of view must not be blocked. Making the case opening around the camera too smallmay block the field of view of the lens. This may cause vignetting in the image, where the corners of the imageare darker than the center. Blocking marginal rays just outside the field of view of the lens may also reducethe sharpness of the image. See Device Layouts and Dimensions for Apple Devices (page 7) for the detailedmechanical keep-out.

The case opening must not be designed in a way that directs stray light into the camera. If the opening is toonarrow or too steep, it may reflect light into the camera, washing out the image or adding an unwanted colorcast. Adding a chamfer to the camera window and making the window larger can help to direct stray lightaway from the camera. Additionally, where the product is equipped with a flash, a narrow or steep openingmay reflect light from the case opening back into the camera or scene. This may cause the image to appearwashed out or contain unwanted artifacts. A wider opening and chamfer will help direct light reflected fromthe case edges away from the scene and camera.

1.4.2 Color

Note: A matte black material or coating around the camera hole opening is recommended.

Any light reflected from the case may pick up the color of the case. Black material or black coating can helpavoid color bleeding into the camera from an external light source or the flash. The darker the color, the lesslight may be reflected from the source into the camera.

1.4.3 Surface FinishIf the cone opening is < 120°, then a semi-gloss finish around the camera opening is recommended. The flashis a strong source of light and reflections from the camera case opening edge should be managed so they donot reflect back into the camera or the scene. Semi-gloss material can direct light away from the camera ifcombined with a > 95° angle. If the angle is too narrow a high gloss material may reflect light back into thecamera. Matte or diffuse materials scatter light in all directions and may increase the likelihood that light fromthe flash or strong sources in the scene is reflected into the camera.

1.5 ReliabilityCases for Apple devices must be tested to verify that they will withstand long-term use under typical useconditions, and that they do not impair or degrade the functionality of the device, damage it or its immediatesurroundings, or adversely affect the user.

1.5.1 Device Insertion and RemovalThe case must hold the Apple device securely while permitting its easy insertion and removal. The case andthe enclosed device must not be damaged by the repeated insertion and removal of the device from the caseunder conditions representative of long-term use in a variety of environments.

1.7.2 Near Field Communication (NFC)Cases that claim compatibility with NFC enabled Apple devices (such as iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus) must notdegrade device NFC transaction performance.

1.8 TouchscreenThe touch interface in an Apple device senses the presence of one or more fingers on its surface. Any materialbetween the surface and the user's hand, even a very thin sheet of plastic, can affect the performance of thetouch interface.

1.8.1 OverlayIf a case design requires a touchscreen to be overlaid with another material, the material must be:

● Thinner than 0.3 mm

● Designed so that there are no air gaps between it and the touchscreen surface

● Not be electrically conductive

1.8.2 Edge Swipe GesturesA case must allow the user to use edge swipe gestures that were introduced in iOS 7.0. These gestures includebringing up Control Center, Notification Center, and swiping back from apps that may use edge swipe gestures(such as the Messages app).
