Natalie ✨ Can’t wait to try the new NOS 3.0. Here are my questions 👇

I’m curious whether about whether there would a file manager coming anytime soon.
Will the sanctity of the Dot Matrix font be compromised in NOS 3.0?
There were minor bugs and several suggestions for the NOS raised by the community like Amoled Pitch Black in the OS. Have they been fixed and considered?
What is the future of Nothing? Coz I feel like Nothing is nothing but the OG OnePlus.
The world is running now behind AI, what are the significant AI features beside the one present in Gallery in NOS 3.0?

Why did you leave the old status bar/QS icons? These sharp corners stand out against the background of the user-friendly UI

Natalie ✨ in the last week’s video, Yuri mentioned something about an animation engine, is this being used only in a very specific part of the UI or throughout the system?

How much percent will AI be a part of Nothing OS 3.0?🧠🤖 Like we saw that Nothing gallery will feature a quite useful features like AI Upscale and Segmentation. Will we get to see Nothing getting its own AI assistant like Siri that responds to queries based on context? Or a Custom Phone and Dial app that could transcript conversations in real time or could auto-translate conversations?

Harsha..

Natalie ✨

Please add a nothing calls 📞 app .

I think this would be essential.

Natalie ✨ It’s very cool how you’re improving Nothing OS in many ways than one, unlike Samsung and Apple, who just give minor design changes and updates that don’t matter. That’s one of the many reasons I love Nothing phones. I would like to ask four questions:

Will the Ndot font still be around Nothing OS (in some places at least)?
Can I uninstall most of the Google apps (except Google, Play Store, YouTube, Maps, Drive, .etc)?
Will you make more proprietary system apps for the OS in the future?
Can I have the option to install optional features (like Link to Windows, Nothing Community account integration and so on)?

In the teaser post by Carl on X regarding shooting of the os release video, there were some documents on table in which it was written “New Glyph” , so what was that?

Harsha..

With the rise of AI-powered features in smartphones, how is Nothing ensuring that these tools, like the AI-powered Smart Drawer and AI upscaling, are designed with privacy and data security in mind? Will users have control over how much personal data is used to improve these AI functionalities?

Can you expect ‘flip to glyph’ toggle in notification panel

Is dark mode present as grey colour or pitch black in Nothing OS 3.0 . If no please implement pitch black mode on UI.

RyanGosling_EEdpRYmlCi

Natalie ✨ Why not introduce true blacks for dark mode, at least on some prominent elements? The gray doesn’t look that good imo. It kinda makes sense to use the advantage of AMOLED screens

MadOne

How about some signature live wallpapers?

It would be great to see if the pedometer widget sync with the health connect app. Would be so great to have a record of data for ages.

Natalie ✨ I hope there is an option to sync the google photos in the Nothing Gallery so that we can completely rely on Nothing Gallery. Otherwise, we have to open the Google photos for everytime we need to see the backed up photos from memories.

Hey

-Can you add “ required password to shut down ” feature in the upcoming update for privacy

-There is a feature that lets users to activate ,when they give their phone to service centre for repairs

Like galaxy maintenance mode (all our dates will be locked and the basic apps are unlocked for testing ) , so I think it’s a must feature for a phone to give in…

FerozeHakeem

Will there be more nothing exclusive apps like nothing gallery or new widgets in future?

Also will the user be forced to enter pascode to switch off the device for tracking lost phone?

Any more improvements to the Glyph interface as it has only very limited usage case scenario?

Rivan

I have quite a few questions:

Is Nothing OS 3 based on Android 15?
If it is based on Android 15, then will it have all of the Android 15 features such as Private Space, Satellite Connectivity, etc.?
Will Gemini Nano be available?
Will Circle to Search be available?

JackChalk

Will Nothing Gallery App be backed up by Google still? And will my photos present in Google Photos AND Gallery? Or only one? Can you choose a default camera gallery?

mhdfirmus

Will it include AiCore and Circle to Search and Gemini Nano
