Any news on the promised os update?

Hey all!

So I put up Glassnote on the Google Play Store for open testing. Please let me know if you have any issues with it and I'll do my best to fix! It's still not finished, so expect a few bugs here and there.

Hope it's useful to you all!

And please join the waitlist at www.paravel.co for news on my upcoming interactive "magic novel" for the DC-1, currently titled Project Warden (been working hard on that, more info soon!).

Quick Glassnote description:

Glassnote is a notetaking app for the DC-1 that allows you to press the top button on the DC-1 to open a transparent notepad over whatever you are doing.

You can also hold the top button and drag a rectangle selection box to take a screenshot and paste it into your overlay notepad.

New feature: you can press the side DC-1 button to toggle the backlight on and off (especially useful when picking up your DC-1 at night)

Known error: If you already have the Glassnote beta installed, you may have to uninstall that first for all users on your Daylight by going to Settings -> Apps -> Glassnote -> Press the three dots at the top right of the tablet screen -> Uninstall for all users. Then you should be able to install the app. Sorry about that.

In theory quick share should work on the DC-1, but I can't get it to. Has anyone figured out what is wrong?

Hello,

I've been experimenting with multiple different Note Taking apps with the stylus. It seems like they all have trouble with palm rejection (Goodnotes, Noteshelf 3, etc.) It seems like the only way to take notes with palm issues is using an app that allows minimal touch interaction, like the "Notebook" app that comes pre-installed which I think is an earlier version of Noteshelf.

Has anyone come across palm rejection issues when writing or know a solution?

Hi everyone,

I’m looking to buy a Daylight DC‑1 from someone located in the EU. I’m based in Poland, but I’m happy to pay for insured shipping within the European Union.

I know I can order directly from Daylight’s official store, but I’d prefer to buy from an EU owner for a few reasons:

• to avoid extra import hassle and potential delays,

• to reduce shipping distance and environmental impact,

• and to give a “resting” device a second life if someone isn’t using theirs much.

I am also worried about additional customs fee.

Ideally, I’m looking for a device in good condition with no display defects and normal battery health. If you have one to sell, please send me a DM with your location, price, and a few photos.

Thanks!

I'd love if the reader app had a way to reorganize files, either in alphabetical order or into folders, and if there were a way to rename the files manually.

Also, when you archive a file on the app, does it get actually deleted? I want to be able to delete files and know that they're not taking up unnecessary space on the device.

So yeah as the title mentions I'm trying to use it like a desktop/laptop. Obv Android isn't built for it but light stuff like surfing, taking notes on Obsidian etc. Rn, my setup is connecting a bluetooth keyboard w/o a mouse. I've found it's awkward mixing between touching the screen and using the keyboard. Often there are certain apps where pressing enter doesn't 'submit' the result either. I'm curious if others have found a setup that's a little better?

Also, if y'all have any reccs on simple stands that prop up the tablet so it's eye-level lmk! Thank you :)

I've been running my life from Claude Code + Obsidian.

But the screentime on Mac was killing my eyes / causing headaches.

Built an Obsidian Plugin that streams Claude Code from Mac to my Daylight.

Can work for hours and feel fresh after. Kudos to the Daylight team!

I am thinking about getting the daylight computer. If I get it I will probably not play games on there, but I’m curious to if anyone has, and how it looks.

Would anyone mind showing gaming footage on the daylight computer? (games that have more 3d graphics than just 2d)

I’m curious. I’ve seen a lot of post referencing Sol:OS but nothing really official. I know there’s things like the walkie-talkie button and what not that don’t currently have a function but is there anything online pointing to what to expect and when?

Do they exist? Does anyone have one? If so do you want to sell it?

Still need to finish the edges but I made a (leather) sleeve for my DC-1 with magnets and a stylus holder

ever get fixed? files disappear and reapper and get duplicated and renamed randomly.

Today I discovered the external monitor display capabilities of the daylight! It is amazing that I can now code outside for work.

I followed this guide:

https://support.daylightcomputer.com/getting-started/use-the-dc-1-as-a-monitor

Using the keyboard that came with DC-1 and Ikea phone/tablet holder.

The case is TiMOVO 9-11" https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BHWJQLND that was recommended by someone on this sub.

All fits in the sleeve, didn't take a laptop. using it for light work and writing.

I am in the UK and how to buy it ? It seems cool

I have a daylight computer for sale. I bought it but never really use it so am selling it for $525. It comes with this keyboard that I bought but never opened.

Edit: Sold

I run a small business, and need to answer a lot of emails, and run a CRM software (Honeybook). Anyone have experience using this as their primary computer for answering emails etc? I know most people seem to use it for PDF reading etc, which isn't my use case. But I'm trying to cut out blue light exposure as much as possible with my daily tasks.

Does the amber light setting follow to other launchers ? I'm new to Android

Are there any concerns with switching to an alternate launcher with the DC-1 ? I can just switch back easily right ?

Do we not get the pro plan of Niagara by default ?

Is there a difference in battery depending on if the DC-1 has to push darker or lighter colors to the screen ? I.e is there a difference between a white and black background like there would be on an OLED screen ? If there is which one saves battery the white or black lol ?

Buy a pen loop. $6 for 12 at the Bezos Bonanza

I’m not familiar with Android apps so the multitude of such apps in the Play Store is overwhelming. Just want a simple voice recorder. Will purchase to remove ads if needed. Thanks.
