Well, that’s the point of Android. Exactly that! So kudos NocturnalDude84 , great work! It’s not something I personally like aesthetically but I definitely like and appreciate when people do what they want to get on their own to end up with something they like. That’s the beauty of Android - customisation and freedom to customise as we want (instead of tagging Carl around here to do the same for everyone, lol). Well done 🍻

I appreciate you for taking this in your own hands and decided to customise your home screen instead of complaining.

NocturnalDude84 How did you do this?

NocturnalDude84 goated for experimenting yourself and not coming into the community with a fist full of complaints. Cheers mate. Energy we need here

Why do you buy a nothing phone when you do this as Homescreen? Just asking
Not my type but looks good (when you like this style)

Nicouschulas exactly, Nothing stated that they don’t want to be like other brands and following their trends , many people forget that Nothing’s philosophy is keeping Android simple and making it having less distractions , if they want liquid glass, they should get either a OPPO phone with the latest ColorOS 16 or a iPhone phone instead

How can we do this in our mobile

NocturnalDude84

SREYASC I used Neon Glass Widgets pack plus One UI Glass icon pack. They’re both paid apps though.

Thank you for being sensible. Probably a bit too much glass for my taste, but I appreciate seeing the options! It’s incredible.. this is the first differing opinion I’ve seen here in months that wasn’t framed as “give me this” or “please fix that" or not attacking and deeming.

I really appreciate you sharing your perspective respectfully, without attacking or talking down to anyone. Honestly, this gives me a little hope for what the Community can be when we have real, balanced discussions. 💜

Yes, a lot of new customers, especially of np3a don’t get what nothings philosophy was

SupTube2 or….they can utilise the thousands of customisable launchers, icon packs, and widgets available for android

Which this person did. And they're proudly showing off their creation

SupTube2

Nicouschulas yeah they should check first on the internet before buying so they can know what to buy depending on what they like on smartphones or not.

Anonymous1004 But still, that's not Nothing's philosophy, Nothing aims to provide a simple Android expirience with less distractions , if you don't understand their philosophy, then just buy a different kind of brand that haves a iOS-like expirience (HyperOS Xiaomi devices or OPPO/OnePlus phones) or just do a research before buying a Nothing/CMF Phone.

SupTube2 Maybe they bought it for everything else but changed the homescreen to look nicer? Essential space, bloatware free (for now), back design, cheap price, etc.
