For anyone who is an [Apple](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/apple-macintosh) addict, especially for its sleek smartphones, you can now show off your love for the gadgets with the iPhone Icon Pillows.

These home accessories are adorable and uber-cute, with an iPhone apps design to please any Apple geek. The pillows are a bigger and more comfortable version of the touchscreen icons. Offered in a wide range of all the most popular apps, you can mix and match your favorite cushions on your couch. My favorite is the mail app pillow because it even includes a numbered bubble at the top--how clever and cute!

From the calendar icon to [all sorts of social media apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ios-experiences), these soft and plush iPhone Icon Pillows make you want to check your mobile for real notifications.
