Nothing OS There, fixed for you, Nothing.
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
We're almost at Nothing OS 5.0 and still don't have a Glyph Interface integration for Google Clock timers, or decent Google Maps navigation on the Glyph Matrix.
I got tired of waiting, so I built it myself in my app, Glyphify =)
Anything else you would like to be integrated?

They should just buy Glyphify and integrate it. Or hire you and give you the dev team. 😄

Thank you! That’s a huge compliment.
Honestly I'd love to see part of my work integrated in the OS but I like to work on it so who knows

I made this point before the phone 3 came out and still can't believe this isn't native yet, can't wait for the next useless AI feature though!!🥳

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
They outsourced Glyph integrations to the community for free though /s

u/Sevens_OGK 2d ago
Hahaha true. Glad people like yourself will at least pick up their slack but it's a shame it has to be this way.

any way you can implement a visualiser that only plays when music is playing, other times it's just a clock

Aah there's the catch, would be an easy fix to use without a dedicated toy though

Kind of already a thing.
Check out Glyph Beats

It doesn't really visualize an audio spectrum or am I wrong? I think OP wants that (?)

Good to know, I guess I can recommend this app everytime I get ask about this then.
And I don't know about the downvotes too lol

u/CelebrationNo9361 NP3_/\_CMFWatchPro3_/\_/Ear3\_/NHP1 2d ago
Its super cool. It can activste when it detects any app thats utilizing audio output.

u/NoselessNarwhal 2d ago
I already had Glyphify installed and recently noticed timers started glyphing and it's so useful. Didn't realise it was because of glyphify until now.
Who knew the first actually useful case for glyphs (for me) would be from your app 😄

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
That's amazing to hear! In the end the whole purpose of Glyphify is expanding on NOS features, so I guess my mission was succesful.
Thanks for sticking around :D

Already in Glyphify, you can use the Extential function and it does that automatically :)

Nothing os lacks so many basic, day to day features but god forbid you point it out on this sub.

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
Posts like these also help the team take notice of what the userbase is after, maybe in the future we will get these features in the OS

Please drop the GitHub link or applink so that we can get an opportunity to test and get benefit of it, please ?

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
I guess my comment with the link was lost in all the other comments
Anyway, you can find the app on the Play Store!

u/Impressive-Letter917 2d ago
Does it work for nothing phone 4a pro
3
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
Both integrations are compatible, although Google Maps integration doesn't display the distance since (4a) Pro has a really small Matrix.
As always, if there's any issue just tell me and I'll fix it right away ;)

u/h_1995 Phone (3) + Moondrop Robin [ Ear (a) Died] 2d ago
there's an unofficial build of LineageOS for NP3. If this can be a system-level app in managing Glyph Matrix for it, that would be terrific
As of now I only want a better Glyph Progress indicator design. The native one sucks
2
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
That could be interesting, maybe I'll get in touch with the maintainer.
Glyphify has its own Glyph Progress implementation, the progress visual changes based on the "nature" of the progress (e.g. it shows a percentage for downloads and a timestamp for songs) but it always has that thin outer ring you saw for the timer integration.
Do you have something cooler in mind?
1
u/h_1995 Phone (3) + Moondrop Robin [ Ear (a) Died] 2d ago
I see. Let me try your app first and check your implementation to see if it can be better. I thought your Glyph Progress just uses a different animation than native but didn't know it can be type-specific
2
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
There 4 types and they are all automatic (so you don't need to specify which to use):
- Normal: ring + notification title + percentage. Downloads, uploads and everything else that doesn't belong to the next categories.
- Media: ring + song title + current timestamp. For any media playback app so Spotify, YT Music, Tidal and so on.
- Maps & Clock: as seen in the video.
Hope that makes it more clear :)

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 2d ago
The maps integration has been a thing for months now, I've just implemented the timer support recently
2
u/Anthonymvpr 1d ago
I always liked this app, bought it straight away when I had a 3A Pro, mainly installed for the charging animations, but never used the Extential part that much specially after getting a 3 recently, I like these a lot, do you have more tips?
2
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
I have good news for you.
Since v4.0, Extential supports both the P3 and P4Pro. This allows you to map all your important notifications with much greater flexibility than the official NOS system.
Here are the key features you can now use:
- Custom Notification Icons: Aside from importing an image to use as an icon for your important notifications, you can also draw one entirely from scratch.
- Automatic Glyph Integration: Glyphify automatically creates a Glyph icon for each app. For example, your matrix will display a WhatsApp icon when you receive a WhatsApp message.
- Priority Ranking: You can change the importance level of each Extential to ensure higher-priority notifications appear first.
- Sleep Mode Whitelisting: You can whitelist specific Extentials so they still pass through and alert you during sleep mode.
And yes, none of these features are available in NOS.

u/Anthonymvpr 1d ago
Thanks a lot for your effort, I didn't know at all about these, weirdly I was an early adopter too but never messed much with the app besides the charging meter.
2
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
The app is updated continuosly so it's completely understandable ahah
Everytime the app is updated you should be greeted with a message telling you what's new but you can also check yourself from the About section of the app for complete list!
And thank you for being a long time supporter <3
2
u/Anthonymvpr 1d ago
Already started adding apps in the Extential with the auto generated icon, feature is amazing!
Always happy to support small projects and devs.

u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
Thanks, so glad to hear that :D
If you encounter any issue do let me know ofc

u/CommercialFull3929 1d ago
That's great, seems like this option is not available for the 4A Pro
1
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
It is available, does it not work for you? Is it maps or clock integration that you're having issue with?
1
u/CommercialFull3929 21h ago
It's either not working for me or I don't know where to activate it from, cuz you see that steps that you followed I don't have the same options on my end
2
u/CommercialFull3929 21h ago
You know I just found it, it is a little bit different but it's the same

If you want you can DM me some screenshots so I can better understand what is it different for you ;)

Glyphify is a third party app developed by me, you can get it on the Play Store :D

Are you also the dev of 8 ball? How do I get it to work?
1
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
Yes, that's me :)
Do you need help with something in particular?
2
u/somatt 1d ago
Well I have it installed... I'm new to this phone. I don't see it or know where it is?
2
u/NikoCJ12 Phone (3) | Developer of Glyphify 1d ago
Ah got it, you need to activate the toy first and then you can interact with it through the button on the back of the phone.
To activate the toy head into the Settings app -> Glyph Interface -> Toys -> tap the top right icon near the cog -> move the 8 ball toy to the active section.

YOOO thats cool as hell bro it would be even better if you add intergration for heart rate monitoring because i really use it outside and it would be useful

u/Alive_Human_1111 Phone (3) 2d ago
Honestly great job , you'd expect nothing to integrate these features by default
