The best gift I ever received was a travel tech organizer kit my husband made for me a few years ago. My husband is pretty organized when it comes to his electronic cables. He has been a tech guy in the technology industry for over 25 years, so he knows his stuff. We recently made this kit for our young adult kids. See how we made them and what you can add to your customized tech organizer.

The center pocket is excellent for the portable charger, and it's a perfect size for that area. Also, You can run the cables through the bottom and close the case altogether and still charge a device without taking it out of the case.
Add the wall charger to the zipper pocket to keep it from falling out. This pocket is good for several things, like earbuds and watch chargers.
Use the band at the top to hold the wrapped cables in place.
If you have iOS devices, you will need to swap out a few of these items to be compatible with those.

How to make an iOS Tech Organizer Kit?
Now that you have all the items to make the iOS tech organizer kit, here is how to do it.
The screen cleaner wipes are great when cleaning your computer and phone. Adding them to the front mesh pocket lets you see them at a glance.
If you have an iPad, and it is a newer version, you can add an extra cable for that one as well.
Since the watch has its cable, you will need to add one.
For the AirPods, you must bring a regular iOS charger to charge the case and earbuds. Add the earbuds and case to the zipper pocket.
