bjgo78 Hey, welcome to the Nothing family 🙂

bjgo78 The flip to glyph has been brought to my attention, and I’m using it, but I was wondering if I turn it off, will the lights still indicate that I have a notification and buzz or just a buzz and the sound?

Yes, the glyph lights will still turn on when flip to glyph is turned off.

With your other points, you can submit feedback and suggestions using your phone’s feedback tool in settings -> system -> feedback.

I was hesitant to choose between the base and the pro. At the and it came down to the daily use of the camera, which is not that often. Besides I have a DSLR when I nned to take professional photos. Still this camera is good for trips when you have limited space (like when travelling with plane)

I am facing an issue , currently when i am switching off my phone some white lines were appearing momentarily and vanishing for like a milliseconds or seconds ,but when I turned the animations off from accessibility, it never appeared…

I’ve seen that too, but I think there’s no harm to it. Probably a bug.

That’s a hard choice to make switching from iPhone to an Android. I agree on the button, same issue here.

For the Tap to Top, it’s a browser choice, some supports it, some not, this is the same with apps, messenger and telegram has this feature.

Hi folks,

I switch over from an iPhone to my first Android Phone the Nothing 3a. I have this phone for few days now and I’m very impressed with it so far…

However I’ve noticed that the essential space button needs an on/off switch setting. Why you may ask, because it permanently triggers the recording in the cell phone holder in the car. If it is mounted underneath, it loses its stability.

What I’m currently missing from my iPhone is the Tap to Top function in every window. If your on a website for example you could go directly to the top without instead of endless scrolling - huge timesaver.

HameedtajMd Brother, I am sorry for your problem but I do not actually work for Nothing so I couldn’t do that. You need to contact support directly yourself by filling in this form here:

It wasn’t as huge as I was expecting it before. I started fresh with just migrating contacts and calendar , everything else I’ve used on my iPhone was already cross platform like navigation, password manager, podcasts, to-do app etc.

Currently I’m only missing the excellent Apple Notes app - wish Nothing would make one.

It’s my experiment after several years with iOS.

I love my 3a. Had it for 2 days now. Already hate this damn Essential Key.

Please let me disable or remap it. Essential Space is not useful.

The Essential Key triggers constantly by accident and also I constantly mistake it for the power button.
