A custom set of widgets designed specifically for the HMD Pulse series phones.
Context
Rebranding existing Android widgets to align with HMD’s visual identity, alongside designing a unique, exclusive set tailored specifically for HMD phones. The widgets are user-selectable based on individual needs, and their design prioritizes flexibility and responsiveness to accommodate various grid sizes.

Time Frame: Sep-Nov 2023
Role: UI Design, Icon Design
Involvement
Collaborated closely with the overseas base development team to design widgets according to their technical specifications. Since functionality was entirely dependent on the Android platform, any design deviation had to be carefully evaluated for feasibility. Most widgets were created in five responsive sizes to support layouts ranging from one to five columns.
The widget set included international weather, quick settings, digital clock with alarm, media player, ‘At a Glance,’ timer, and more. While most icons followed Android’s Material Design system, I created the custom weather icons specifically for this project.
