Nothing has launched an app store called Playground, dedicated to AI-generated smartphone applications, built on Android. This initiative is part of a broader vision termed Essential, which includes various AI-related products. Playground allows users to create simple apps using written prompts, with functionalities like mood tracking and expense management. Currently, users can only create widgets and must use a web platform to develop apps before installing them on their devices. Future enhancements may enable app creation directly on phones, potentially through voice commands. Playground also encourages a collaborative creator economy, allowing users to remix apps. Nothing remains committed to Android and has no plans to alter its foundational code.
