Hi, where else can I upload this image to illustrate what I mean?

This is UI on my nothing phone. I see a major benefit for my everyday mental wellbeing to not have my phone shooting at me with all colors, and instead being “just a good interface”.

There might be some issues with icon recognition and speed of access, but since that’s your device and your icon placement, you eventually getting used to it. In exchange you receive a clean UI which doesn’t overload your receptors, which is a very important thing for the device you look at often.

Weather widget in the middle often shows calendar events, but I don’t discolse that for privacy.

Thanks for listening to my TED talk.

    Is it the one you see when you slide down?

    That one is still bombarded by notifications from applications, so I simply have “Do Not Disturb” mode on almost all the time.

    It also allows to disable notification by holding it, but it is like that on all phones, I assume.

    It has support for silent notifications also, but I kinda just nuke whatever new thing pop ups there.

    And also it has customizable buttons for features with the ability to change size and placement. Quite neat.

        And it’s like constantly 50 notifications you never asked for stacked in the endless columns of meaningless information, regardless how often you disable them :D

        But I simply nuke whatever pop ups. Keep sms, and emails.

        I also thought that’s standard, but that UI also allows to customize and disable them per category when you hold your finger on the notification. So I can disable everything, but keep direct messages, for example.

      You should be able to long press unwanted notifications and stop the system showing that class of notification or all notifications from some app

      “Turn off” stops that class of notification from that app

      Settings gear takes you to the notification section of the app that threw the notification and toggle any or all of that apps notifications

      You can also get to the notification a couple of other ways:

      • Settings/apps go to whatever app’s settings including notification settings
      • In your switch application view tap the icon above the app’s card
