Features

In
a
community

post,
Nothing
announced
that
its
OS
3.0
Open
Beta
1
for
the
Phone
2a
contains
some
of
the
features
that
it
previewed
last
month.
The
update
brings
a
new
lock
screen
which
allows
more
direct
editing
by
simply
long-pressing
the
screen.
It
also
bundles
new
clock
faces,
typefaces,
and
design
layouts.

Nothing
OS
3.0
Open
Beta
1
includes
a
smart
drawer
powered
by

artificial
intelligence
(AI).
This
feature
automatically
arranges
apps
in
different
categories
based
on
usage.
Users
can
also
pin
their
most-used
apps
at
the
top
of
the
app
drawer.

The
update
bundles
camera
improvements,
including
reduced
HDR
processing
time,
faster
launch
speed
with
the
camera
widget,
improved
low-light
performance,
and
better
zoom
slider
display.
It
also
enables
faster
multi-tasking
by
allowing
users
to
move
and
resize
the
pop-up
view.
The
same
can
now
be
pinned
on
the
screen’s
edge
too.

The
fingerprint
animation
is
also
changed
in
line
with
the
company’s
synonymous
dot-matrix
theme.
Nothing’s
latest
update
includes
an
auto-archiving
functionality
that
claims
to
free
up
the
storage
space
automatically
without
removing
data
or
apps.
Users
can
also
record
their
screens
partially
rather
than
the
entire
window
view.
Nothing
says
it
has
also
upgraded
the
setup
wizard
to
version
3.0
for
a
smoother
process.
