Phosh has been advancing a lot in part thanks to NLnet funding for various initiatives such as cell broadcast support. There has also been work on improved power management / energy efficiency, per-country emergency numbers, sandboxed thumbnails, lockscreen wallpapers, auto brightness, and more.
For helping to allow more monetary donations to the project, Phosh mobi e.V. has been established in Germany as a non-profit association for fostering Phosh development.
Some of the future work on Phosh includes completing its GTK4 toolkit port, cut-out support with XDG-cutouts for "notches" type cutouts on some mobile devices, and SIP improvements to GNOME Calls. Again thanks to NLnet funding for backing those initiatives.
Those wanting to learn more about the recent and ongoing Phosh work for enhancing this GNOME-aligned mobile Linux UI initiative can see the FOSDEM 2026 slide deck .
