The household toolbox and the smartphone nudged a little closer Thursday with the arrival of a built-in bottle opener in a plastic bumper case for the iPhone.

While the case, available in pink or black, costs $24.95, it comes with a free app that tracks the number of bottles opened, features songs to play while opening bottles and allows you to record your own sound effects.

The app, called Headcase, suggests songs if you don’t have your own: “Funky Monkey” and “5 O’Clock Somewhere Parrot.”

Down-home practicality has never been one of the smartphone’s chief selling points but there are a few free apps designed to fill in for your missing dad.

Among them: Apps that turn your phone into a flashlight, a mirror, a carpenter plumb bob, a carpenter level, a ruler or a caliper.
