First off, Nothing announced that the recently released software update will have the Ear (stick) features and customizations integrated into Device Details, which can be accessed via Quick Settings. This is only available for those who own the company’s Phone (1), whereas non-Phone (1) users will get the same via the new Nothing X app.
Those who own the Ear (1) can already take advantage of the new controls in Phone (1)’s Device Details or the Nothing X app. Here are some of the most important features now available for your Ear (1):
- Switch between Active Noise Cancellation modes
- Customize gesture controls
- Choose between different preset equalizer settings
- In-ear detection
- Find My Earbuds
- Check battery levels of each earbud and the case
- Download firmware updates
Similar features are available for those who plan to purchase Nothing’s upcoming Ear (stick) buds, with one addition, low lag mode. Below is the full list of features available for the Ear (stick) at launch:
- Customize gesture controls
- Customize equalizer settings for tailored low, mid, and high frequency levels
- In-ear detection

Those who don’t own the Phone (1) will have to download the Nothing X app on the Google Play Store or App Store to benefit from the latest improvements. Non-Phone (1) users who already have the Ear (1) app should download the latest update to turn it into the Nothing X app.
