I wanted to share some feedback regarding the application hiding feature in the Nothing CMF Phone 1.

Currently, the hidden applications can be accessed simply by swiping right, which defeats the purpose of hiding them. Without the requirement of a password or any additional security step to access these hidden applications, this feature does not truly serve as a privacy measure.

It would be highly beneficial if a password or some form of authentication is made mandatory to access hidden applications. This would ensure user privacy and enhance the functionality of the feature.

Thank you for your efforts and for continuously improving user experience.

Hii nothing ,

I am using nothing phone (1) since last 6 months and am fully comfortable with this device

But according to me in NOTHING OS 2.0 in the hide app feature I think that you should design it like that when the app icon is hide the app should be showed having an install option in the Google Play store

Means , The app will be working and be there in the phone but when it’s hide there should be the option of installing it again from the Play Store

A kind request to Nothing company to take a appropriate action and attention on this topic

Thank you once again Nothing company and Nothing team for making a phone like this

Your faithful,

Customer

A security feature like fingerprint unlock/ pattern/ pin must be added to the hidden app drawer. So that hidden apps can be protected. This feature is already available in most of the other Android Skins(OS).

There is no privacy for hide app. Anyone can see your hide app. By swiping is there any lock or password available for hide app. Folder?????

    Hello, no there isn’t anything like that at this time. You can send a suggestion for this through settings>system>feedback, that’s how to reach the people that need to see this.👍

    There is no option to lock the hidden folder. But you can hide the app normally and lock the app so that even if someone gets the app, they will not be able to access.

    KishansinhZala Yeah having a password would be more secure. But anyway poeple are not supposed to know that you have to swipe left to access that part. so…
