According to the official hype, Nothing Phone (1) has the Glyph backlight, which can be used for notification/charging instructions, but Dylan Roussel has just discovered yet another trick for it. With a little digging and a strange solution, you can also use The Glyph as a music visualization tool.
When enabled, The Glyph will light up and flash with whatever music you’re listening to — as long as the audio is played through the Nothing Phone (1) speakers!
9to5Google speculates that, perhaps for fear of the risk of inducing photosensitive epilepsy, the official did not officially disclose and promote this feature.
But if you want to experience it, you can still try the following steps.
"(1) Create a new contact named 'Abra' in your phone's address book. (2) Go to 'Settings' and select the 'Glyph Interface' function menu. (3) Click 'Ringtone' and add a contact. (4) Select the ringtone associated with 'Abra'. (5) Save the settings and exit the ringtone menu."
Once the operation is complete, a toggle switch for the music visualizer will appear in the Glyph Interface’s settings screen.
Once enabled, your Nothing Phone (1) will start flashing and pulsating with whatever tune is playing on your speakers.
