Lockscreen Shortcut options on the Nothing Phone (1) Beta
Another discovery made in regards to the method by which the shortcuts on the lock screen are triggered, is that you will need to tap and hold the buttons in order to initiate the action, instead of just a simple tap. This change makes the feature’s behavior more consistent with how it works on iOS, where buttons are similarly activated by pressing and holding them. This was probably changed in order to prevent accidental touches, especially where the camera and flashlight are concerned, which can quickly drain your phone’s battery.
