click wheel

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Medical, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.
click wheel
The user interface that made the iPod popular. Originally using an actual rotating wheel, the wheel was later made touch sensitive, and its rotation was simulated. Buttons at the top, bottom, sides and center of the wheel select menus and functions. See iPod classic and scroll mouse.
