The old “Dad-ism” “I don’t need anything!” can leave you in a bit of a pickle. We’re a gadget company, so we typically think about gifting gadgets. It turns out that a lot of dads like gadgets, too! We’ve taken a few typical “Dad-isms” and turned them into gift ideas for the techy dad.
If any of the following Dad-isms sound like your Pops, you’ll have the upper hand come June 21st.

Nest is the popular smart thermostat that “learns from you.” Your dad will have to give one of his approving grunts when Nest programs itself as it learns the temperatures he likes. Even better, Nest automatically turns itself down to help save you energy when nobody’s home.

Costs: various models, $8.99 and up
Once upon a time, having your phone out while you were driving meant you were unnecessarily distracted. Dad was probably the first person to remind you to “get off that darned thing.” Nowadays, navigation apps and music interfaces that have replaced paper maps and car stereo knobs make your smartphone an indispensable part of the driving experience. Make sure dad has it at eye-level instead of down in his lap or precariously balanced on the cupholder.
Dad-ism: “What do you think I am, made of money?”
Solution: Automatic

We may be a little biased (okay, we’re really biased) — we think an Automatic is a great happy fathers day gift for Father’s Day! The Automatic app diagnoses MIL codes (when your Check Engine Light is on) which might save your dad a trip to the shop, tells him how much money he’s spending on gas and even helps him improve his fuel efficiency. Now you can tell your dad, “Look who’s made of money, now!” There are also loads of apps for car enthusiasts, savings, and safety like DashCommand, License+ and YourMechanic.
