FAQ
Questions & answers

Can I develop my own game?

Yes, absolutely. Torq can be customized as a unique game tailored to your campaign or product.

How long does Torq spin?

That depends on how skillfully the wheel is set in motion. Experts can achieve an incredible 30 revolutions, or so they say.

Can I clean my Torq?

Yes, Torq is designed to simply click apart for easy dust and debris removal.

My Torq isn't spinning as well. What can I do?

Torq can be cleaned as described above.
Lifehack: We have heard from users who have helped themselves with a little salad oil. That sounds exciting – who else has other ideas?

Can I remove Torq without leaving any residue?

Yes, the first step is to attach a protective film to the smartphone that adheres without glue and can be removed without leaving any residue. Torq is then glued to this film.

Does wireless charging also work with Torq?

It depends on the charger. Torq is only 2 mm thin, making it suitable for all wireless chargers that allow for the appropriate distances.

Where is Torq manufactured?

We produce Torq in cooperation with partners from North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany.

How did you come up with the idea for Torq?

The smartphone is used primarily by individuals. We wanted to turn it into a more social object that allows several people to experience something analog together. The battery can run out or the internet can go down, but Torq keeps on turning.

What is the glow-in-the-dark effect and what is a cell phone finder?
Optionally, there is also a version of Torq with phosphorescent color. Torq charges itself in daylight and glows in the dark. The trend towards this effect appears every few years, but for us it makes a very pragmatic sense: finding your smartphone in the dark, whether in bed or in your pocket, is easier with this option. You can also play games in the dark, for example when traveling in a tent.
Of course, Torq doesn’t glow green, as it might initially seem familiar, but blue.
