Solana Mobile has recently unveiled a new NFT minting app, called Minty Fresh, which allows anyone to mint NFTs directly from their Saga phone with just a few taps. The app is a significant step towards making the process of minting NFTs more accessible to the masses.
Minting NFTs can often be a complicated process, requiring users to go through complex steps on their computers. However, with Minty Fresh, all you need is a Saga phone to take a photo and turn it into an NFT on-chain within seconds. This opens up a world of possibilities for creators who want to mint their own NFTs, whether it be preserving memories on-chain, making art into digital collectibles, or simply minting an NFT on the go.
During a Saga preview event in Melbourne, Solana Mobile’s Head of Engineering demonstrated how easy it is to use Minty Fresh by live-minting an NFT. He took a selfie with the audience, and within seconds, the image was transformed into an NFT and securely stored on the blockchain.
Currently, minting NFTs is not for everyone. It often require you to open up your computer and go through complex steps.

Minty Fresh’s signing experience is made simple and smooth for users, thanks to the Mobile Wallet Adapter built by Solana Mobile. Users can simply go to their wallet, approve the transaction using their fingerprint, and their newly minted NFT is ready.
Minty Fresh will be available exclusively on Saga devices through the Solana dApp Store when the phone launches later this year. Additionally, Solana Mobile will be open-sourcing Minty Fresh, so developers can use it as reference code to get started with developing on SMS and Saga.
This announcement by Solana Mobile is expected to be a game-changer in the NFT market. With Minty Fresh, anyone can become a creator anywhere, anytime. It is a significant step forward in making NFTs more accessible to the masses, and it will be interesting to see what new Web3 use cases Saga users will unlock in the future.
