You configure it with the proprietary app to get the initial paring key, then you can switch to Gadgetbridge and disable or even remove the Nothing app.
The Good: cheap device cost, nice UI elements, machined aluminum bezel looks premium. Push notifications and most features work.
The Bad: semi-annoying workaround to get it set up initially, not all features work, not using the proprietary app disables using the Nothing watch face library so you’re stuck choosing from the 5 or 6 default designs that come with the watch.
