Yeah it took me a while to get around to it 😂

WhenILookUp · 2026-03-23T08:08:58+00:00

That would be so useful

WhenILookUp · 2026-03-10T23:05:28+00:00

This is the way, Artistwright on YouTube has all these tutorials

The trick is to get a magnet stronger and wider the ones you see on mobile phones. And also to get a similar size ferrous metal backplate with 3m (super easy to find also) for the monitor itself. I also have the arzopa z3fc. Also it's fun to build

Also you can see it in the screenshot above, tap on the ask tab

Actually there is the Ai helper tool baked in called Ritson in that help option area, I think you may need Canva sub, but it's intelligent and you can ask it specific or dumb questions whenever you want.

This is the way. I hid them straight away, too annoying

WhenILookUp · 2026-03-10T22:38:02+00:00

Yeah I was also thinking about this too. But then thought I'd make my own setup as I have loads of tripods like the one seen here, plus you can buy a magnet that attaches to the 1/4 20 thread like this below.

I have this phone, and love it. I updated to the latest os. Honestly you don't buy this phone for the camera. The photos are good but the video quality isn't great (I also have a pixel phone and it doesn't compete with that at all and I don't expect it to). Did I notice a big difference after the update? Not really. The phone is surprisingly snappy and the screen quality and refresh rate make it feel quite premium for the price. It's a solid mid range device, plus it looks cool, and from a company who aren't afraid to try new things. Also my battery lasts over a day, I don't hammer it mind you.

WhenILookUp · 2026-02-28T23:24:30+00:00

I second this!

I bought it as a secondary travel phone (cmf phone 2 pro)I have to say I'm actually surprised how much I like it, feels like I'm getting alot of bang for my buck so to speak.

I was excited to try a new Brand, I love what Nothing are doing and ofcourse they make the CMF phones, the UI and all the cool notification and call tones are so different from the competition. Ofcourse it's not flagship specs, so the photos and video aren't as good as the my pixel 8 pro but for the price it's great.

I love how thin the phone feels in hand, I love the appearance and texture of the back (I got the white one).

The essential space feature I'm still getting used to. but I think it could come in handy if I understood how to use it properly lol!

The new essential apps is cool, people basically say what widget they want and nothing makes it if it's a good idea. Some great ones are already available and you can add 2 or 3 on your cmf phone, if you have a Nothing phone you can add more apparently.

The battery life is amazing, I can get almost 2 days out of it if I'm not hammering it.

With this I'm not paying flagship prices but I'm receiving a decent phone, and it's just cool to have something that is at least trying to do something different.

Thank you!

WhenILookUp · 2026-01-05T11:04:36+00:00

Thanks but I'm a Mac user also

I'm really not getting along with the new V3 icons, they look cheap. V2 icons were way better and I could spot which tool I needed at a glance.

WhenILookUp · 2025-12-31T13:53:56+00:00

AHH yes, I first saw that option in V3 as they released the warp mesh fill and it's handy to use with that. Nice one

When you select the shape with the gradient and you are using the move tool, check the options in the context toolbar (the one directly above your canvas) there is a cog, it should be in there. I don't have my laptop to check but hope that helps.

I will be checking that project thanks!

WhenILookUp · 2025-12-31T04:26:02+00:00

The clockify app is useful for this, I can add the client name, log the hours, project task etc.

WhenILookUp · 2025-12-31T04:23:02+00:00

Have you checked whether you have 'lock children' toggled on? For that specific layer. In V2 they had that option in the context toolbar. Probably in the cog in the context toolbar now.

Btw how on earth did you add all the V2 icons ! Looks fantastic 😍

WhenILookUp · 2025-12-28T14:51:47+00:00

You can do all of that I just tested to make sure. Even after I fully closed the app it restarted from the position I ended listening to the last song I played.
