  • New customised feature for Nexus 5 smartphone users
A new customised service is on its way for Google Nexus 5 smartphone owners.
 
Called "Google Workshop", it is a new tool that offers consumers the chance to get creative with their phone's design.
 
The device lets people take customisations to the next level by using a geographic location to create a case or a live wallpaper, media reports said.
 
You can pick a place on a map to generate a design and it can be augmented with splashes of colour and text.
 
"The other customisation service is called 'Moments' and lets Nexus 5 users upload images that can be incorporated in the wallpaper or in the phone's case design," Android Police reported.
 
Currently, the feature is called MapMe.
 
When used to create a live homescreen wallpaper, it will also automatically integrate live weather data and tweets relating to the location, reports added.
