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.
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.
