I think it’s a great move. Nothing should not be only a tech company, but a Software too.

Anonymous340 From the announcement, I’m hoping that the statement Carl made about Sunbird is that they are just the developers of the software. I would think Nothing would keep those safeguards up. I think the folks at Nothing have safety

      Will it come to the phone 1

      would this be available for the phone 1 users down the road. early 2024 maybe ? 🤔

      Hi All- much more to come on this, look out for an AMA early next week where I look forward to chatting with everyone on this, stay tuned for details on that from @Rob ⚡️

      RoddyMerritt Messages may stay on device to Carls point, but your iCloud ID which is required to set this up, is logged into a Mac virtually in a warehouse which is how Sunbird is able to actually do this. Beeper does the same. So your iCloud ID is signed into a remote Mac, hopefully secure so no one can access it physically or virtually. A lot of potential risk there.

        HiddeVanderGoot I know right! This is really exiting. I’m pretty sure they would release it on the phone 1 too! I also think that only after its completely tested, stable and optimized based on the reviews given by the phone 2 users soon this year is when they would release it for the phone 1 users early next year.

          I. Love. This. Take the fight to them. There is some major potential here for the “Nothing Chat”. Would be a game changer if Nothing is able to consolidate major chats/texting into one app as well as put pressure on Apple to stop this immoral green bubble bullying game.

          Nobody saw this coming, but it is a great move.

          Hope to see it on Phone (1) too.

          What a great company to support by using and purchasing! Great products, amazing software, bring technology together ❤️ nothing!!

            Dang! I’ve been a sunbird user for a while and soooo happy to see nothing adopt a custom version! Ggs

            Kyle DO it, bring down that wall!
            Hopefully, we’ll also see this for Phone (1) or any other Android device. 🤓

              MonocleRB This may be of benefit to NP2 users in the US which is dominated by iPhone owners, who overwhelmingly prefer imessages to whatsapp.

              In India OTOH, whatsapp dominates, therefore here this chat app will have virtually nil impact.

              MKBHD has analysed the use case of Nothing chat very well in his video which a member has linked above.
