Hey there, this is my first-ever post, and I’m thrilled to be here. I recently got my hands on the Nothing Phone 2 on September 16, 2023, and there are some fixes and suggestions I’d like to bring to your attention.
So, here are a few suggestions I’d like to request from the developers:
1: The ability to set the charging limit to 85-90%
Having the option to set a charging limit in this range would be a great feature to extend the battery lifespan. As a college student, I often leave my phone charging overnight. While I’m aware there’s a feature that caps the charge at 90% about an hour before I wake up, having more control over this would be appreciated.
2: The ability to open the clock by clicking on the clock widget
I got into the habit of clicking the clock widget on my previous phone to open the clock app and set alarms. It would be a valuable feature to have, especially for users like me who are switching from a different OS.
(This feature already works with the weather app – clicking the widget opens the weather app.)
3: Night-time Camera Performance
I understand that the developers are working on improving the camera, and I can see them optimizing it. However, the camera still struggles to capture good photos at night.
4: Feedback Glitch/Bug
There seems to be a glitch or bug with the feedback system found in Settings -> System -> Feedback. I’ve attached a screenshot for reference so that the developers can troubleshoot. Currently, it’s just displaying a blank screen.
5: Camera Brightness Glitch
This issue is a bit tricky to explain. When you’re in the camera app, the brightness increases. However, when you exit the app or switch to another one, the brightness remains at the same level, which can be quite frustrating. For example, if you have your brightness set to 35%, opening the camera app increases it to 50%. When you return to the home screen, it’s still at 50%, and you have to manually adjust it back down. It is kinda frustrating.
6: Idle Drain Issue
After the recent update, I’ve noticed that idle drain has increased to 7-10% I would greatly appreciate it if there’s a way to minimize this percentage. Additionally, the Screen-On Time (SOT) has also been impacted by the new update (2.0.3).
Device: Nothing Phone 2
Nothing OS: 2.0.3
