When Nothing announced its second (and latest) phone about a month ago, it fittingly came with the company’s first major update aptly called Nothing OS 2.0. The manufacturer had assured early adopters who had already bought the Nothing Phone (1) that their phones will also get this major software update, as the company has promised 3 years of Android updates and 4 years of security patches.
Nothing OS 2.0 on Nothing Phone (1): what does it bring?
Another UI-based improvement has to do with folders, which are not interactive, meaning you can tap on icons inside a folder that are already visible before you open it. It is almost like having small app trays on your home screen (kind of like the iPhone’s app drawer that groups apps together for you). Additionally, you can also customize the shape and size of these folders.
One of our favorite new features of Nothins OS 2.0 is the ability to move quick toggles from your notifications shade to your lock screen, like turning the flashlight or airplane mode for example.
