“Programming in the Sun: A Year with the Daylight Computer”

We are in the process of updating our privacy policy to be more accurate of our current data collection and privacy values. We made the mistake of working with a legal entity that used a lot of permissive language which is industry standard. Lawyers are expensive and often fear driven, but we have learned our lesson and take accountability for putting something out that isn’t indicative of the truth.

The actual reality is that we do not collect ANY on device data right now. In future versions of our Sol:OS, we only want to collect anonymized analytics that will be able to be opted out of if preferred to in the system settings. The purposed of collecting this data will only to better understand device usage metrics, not customer behavior habits.

You can actually verify this through network logs by inspecting network requests on existing devices using tools like HTTPToolkit [1] or Android Logcat  [2].

We are happy to answer any questions / clear up our stance on privacy as a consumer hardware product. We value this tremendously, and even more so for children using a Daylight.

We appreciate the community calling this out.

Parents are in a conundrum...

You don't want to raise #iPadkids but you also want your kiddos to learn how to interact with the digital world.

This is why we built Daylight.

Privacy and OSS Update 🔥

We have been hard at work unlocking the power of the DC-1 for the community, here are some updates you may appreciate:

✅ Bootloader unlock tools & guides — full freedom to tinker and install what you want ✅ Released kernel sources — now you can build, tweak & optimize with ease ✅ TWRP support jumped forward — recovery development is well underway

And we’re not stopping there — here’s what’s coming soon:

🚀 Stable TWRP images — no more piecing things together; ready-to-flash builds inbound 🚀 Hardened ROMs — robust, privacy-first builds engineered for power users 🚀 Full Linux support on the DC‑1 — Android or Linux, your choice

Whether you're flash-happy or building your own distro, Daylight is crafting the tools to support the community's DIY spirit.

Stay tuned for more updates!

What would happen if you took your computer out in nature?

Introducing Outdoor Computing Club – a summer-long invitation to bring your laptop, your ideas, and your curiosity outside.

From June through August, we’re transforming parks, piers, and open-air cafés across the US and Europe into vibrant outdoor sessions where you can connect, create, and recharge in sunlight. https://blossom.primal.net/db274054aa2d1c53559698f787254184ed6276066eac97842de0a11d8fe72a6c.mp4

Update on software ☀️

To the wonderful ecosystem of Daylight users,

We have an update on Sol:OS and our software timelines. We want to bring you in on our priorities and how we're thinking about things as we learn and grow.

The software team at Daylight has reached a milestone in stability and capability to better plan out into the future, and we want to provide an update on what we’re working on.

Our software team is currently focused on building strong foundational systems for the product. For example: a better system for device updates, a new system for performant reading, marking, and editing documents, and groundwork towards our operating system. We're prioritizing these projects to make sure we have a solid foundation to deliver the experience of computing, reading, writing, and using apps that we envision is possible.

Unfortunately, we need to walk back a promise we made. We originally stated that we’d ship a version of Sol:OS at the beginning of this year. We didn’t properly anticipate the level of rebuilding that we needed to create the kind of operating system we’re proud of. Between paying down tech debt and coordinating among software, hardware, and our manufacturers, our estimates were off.

In March, we hit pause and took stock of each surface we were building. Now, with a more complete picture, we have a better sense of where we are and what happens next. A lot of our current work will initially be less visible to users. There has been a lot of internal deliberation and we recognize this tradeoff. We’re focusing our energy here to invest in the reliability and long term future of Daylight.

Building the foundations is going to take us some time, and we’ll balance shipping small wins for our users with larger chunks of work. We now expect to launch the foundations of a Daylight operating system closer to Q4 this year. You can expect regular updates from our team like this one every couple of months starting this summer.

We are truly excited to show you what we're creating. It's just going to take a bit more time than we expected. We welcome any questions and aim to give you all the information we know now.

We’re working to deliver a future of computing that we’re proud of.

With warmth, Tanuj, Ethan, the rest of the software team, and the whole Daylight organization

Your screen is flickering hundreds of times per second.

Most devices use PWM dimming: rapid, invisible flicker that contributes to fatigue, eye strain, and poor sleep.

Blue light filters won’t fix it. Flicker is a different mechanism entirely — one that disrupts your biology without you noticing.

TARIFF / PRICING UPDATE 🚨

Unless things drastically change, we will have to raise our prices proportionate to the tariffs very soon.

No price changes have been implemented yet, we will try to hold off as long as we can.

New orders targeted to ship by end of May. ☀️

Grayscale is a nootropic

What if technology wasn’t a distraction, but an ally?

A tool designed to help you do your best work — without stealing your focus.

To make that real, we had to rethink everything: the hardware, the software, the intention.

Because real focus doesn’t start with an app. It starts at the source.
