Light Phone Adds Camera and Opens Door to Third-Party Apps

Light Phone has built working prototypes of its third model, which adds a camera for the first time. The company is also opening its software platform to let outside developers build apps. Light Phone makes smartphones designed to do less—just calls, texts, and basic tools on a paper-like screen. After ten years and 100,000 devices sold, the company faces a question: can it grow without losing what made it different.
