I can take this one. For the foreseeable future, Android is a foundation we can build on that will give Daylight users everything they already need in a computer or mobile device. Our screen makes it possible to use all the different categories of software you're used to outdoors and without eye-strain. Our customizations then address some of the problems with Android and the Google ecosystem, such as the annoying notifications and spyware. We block these at a deeper level if the stack by modifying Android to the extent possible. We want to create an experience where your attention is protected and primary, but you have the power to use any existing software you need or want with a reflective screen for the first time. Long-term, we are de-inventing the contorted version of the personal computer we're all stuck with. That will require creating a completely new and independent OS, which we will progress toward over time, both for technical and design reasons.
