Designing without limitations is the first step towards arriving at a final product.

This concept might not get converted into a real product, but it is a step towards communicating what the final product is required/expected to do and what the users want.

Changes in design due to development limitations are common everywhere and have existed forever, this isn’t news. (Check development of 1987’s Hideo Kojima Game - Metal Gear) But it is important to think freely at first in order to have direction.

As an android developer I ask you this - instead of rubbing these widgets off as “unfeasible” or “impossible” find a way or a workaround to make them work. Good design creates great problem solving opportunities for developers. And that is only possible if I as a designer can design without limitations.

      flo_rahil well said, it is the first step, and you should take my feedback as it is. I don’t want to start a war, just wanted to give you some hint, and in the design field honest feedbacks are more valuable than blind claps.

          Mirko_ddd No war at all my friend. Your initial post said that you cannot enjoy such concepts due to their real world feasibility. I am simply trying to convey that they hold value regardless of their immediate feasibility. If anything, it’s a good healthy discussion. Cheers, and keep that feedback coming, no issues.

              LEPE This could use a proper design. If you wish i can help you with some nice options. Let me know.

                LEPE I really waiting such a cool widgets I hope you make more like these widgets 😁

                  LEPE looks really cool widget, hope that nothing team will polish this widget and we will get an official widget like this one.

                    flo_rahil if 4x scale up causes undesirable results may be 2x? I can imagine your key points regarding 4x being too big and I did visualize how it would look on the overall screen, aesthetically. Screens do have their own pixels and colors that do project image and how they affect makes overall sense. The 1x gap is totally acceptable But I still feel Like the alignments of dots either some are too stuck together or too free. May be after viewing them in Nothing display with 1:1 accuracy might bring some difference? I’m just saying… 🙂

                        I really appreciate it what nothing is doing..

                        I still only have widgets on my home screen I might have to. Make a couple of them just to look at all these cool widgets…

                          flo_rahil Great volume and contacts. Other sensor widgets are less useful to me, but nicely done too.

                          Looking forward to 3.5, can I sign for beta?

                            Interesting design, I would use the temperature and the quick notes one. Although the rest seems like they’re too forced to fit-in and are not that necessary, that’s my personal opinion.

                            By the way, saw you’re (perhaps) a fellow MGS fan. That’s pretty good.
