Windows Phone just got its first AI ChatGPT-style app. No, really.
By Jez Corden published May 12, 2025
Homebrew developers keeping Windows Phone 8.1 alive from beyond the grave are
working hard to keep the platform in line with the times.

The year is 2079. Humanity now largely dwells in crowded underground bunkers,
having scorched the surface with nuclear war. Subsisting on recycled protein
paste and mildly-irradiated arthropods, humanity endures, driven by an
endless yearning for the one thing that can unite all cultures, creeds, and
class divides: Windows Phone.
What year is it again? I am here today to write about Windows Phone as though
it was 2015. It's also Sunday and there are no other editors around who can
stop me.
Shared in the Windows 8 Group Discord and developed by an individual called
Logan, our long suffering comrades at the Windows Phone subreddit shared the
project, which is currently in beta testing for those who have jail broken
their beloved Lumia devices.
Leveraging Meta's open weight Llama model, Lumina sports a simple interface
inspired by the Metro UI we all love and miss dearly, with the ability to ask
questions as you might do with Microsoft Copilot or ChatGPT.
Windows Phone itself might no longer be officially supported by Microsoft
(grr), but much like when it was alive, creative and enthusiastic developers
are keeping the platform going with jailbreaks and homebrew apps. Remember
MyTube, 6Tag, or Tweetium? Those were the days.
Microsoft unceremoniously announced Windows Phone's demise in a random tweet
reply, after spending years upon years and millions of dollars carefully
curating a passionate, albeit small fanbase. Its subsequent attempts at
building Android-based phones, like the Surface Duo, were staggering failures.
For the life of me, I can't understand why Microsoft didn't just open source
the OS and let the community keep it alive instead. Microsoft CEO Satya
Nadella has previously lamented killing off Windows Phone and given how much
of Microsoft's aspirations around cloud, AI, and gaming revolve around mobile
endpoints, it'll never stop seeming like a short sighted decision to me. No
Microsoft apps and services come pre-installed on Android or iOS by default,
nor will they ever, giving Xbox, Microsoft Edge, Microsoft Copilot, and
Microsoft 365 a huge disadvantage in the modern default computing modality.
But hey, there's nothing to be done about it now. Now excuse me while I bask
in some Lumia nostalgia with my irradiated cockroach paste.
