Glyph toys emulation for older devices

Albi27

Hi Nothing team and community!

I’m a proud Phone 1 user (this applies to Phone 2 as well), and I absolutely love the idea of Glyph Toys introduced on the Phone 3 — they’re creative, nostalgic, and add a fun twist to the user experience.

I was wondering:

Would it be possible to have an emulated version of Glyph Toys as an on-screen app or widget for older models?

Something like Snake or dot-matrix style messages, perhaps in a movable pop-up or a home screen widget static or interactive.

Of course, I’m not asking to replicate the Glyph Matrix hardware just a visual/emulated version that recreates the same playful, retro vibe.

Why this could be awesome:

Brings a “Phone 3” vibe to Phone 1 and 2 users

Lets more of the community enjoy the Nothing style without needing new hardware

A great opportunity to expand Community Widgets with a consistent design

If there were an official app or even a beta add-on we could sideload, I’d try it right away!

Thanks for considering — and keep up the awesome, creative work!

Hello Nothing Community!

As an enthusiastic user of the Nothing Phone 3a, I’ve been inspired by the unique design and functionality of the Glyph Matrix that the new nothing phone 3 has. While it’s already a standout feature, I believe there’s an opportunity to take it even further with the power of community collaboration.

Imagine a widget that replicates the Glyph Matrix’s capabilities on any Nothing device, blending aesthetics with functionality seamlessly. As someone who loves the Nothing Phone 3’s design, I envision a collaborative effort to bring this idea to life.

I’m reaching out to the community to explore this concept further. Whether you’re a developer, designer, or enthusiast, your input and expertise would be invaluable. Let’s join forces to create something amazing!

Looking forward to your thoughts and collaborations!
