This feature is still in development and is not included in the Nothing OS 5.0 Open Beta yet. The refreshed home screen and Micrographics clock face are planned to arrive with the general release, starting in October. Essential Apps Builder is in early beta, with access rolling out gradually. If you don’t have access yet, you can join the waitlist. We’re looking to rapidly expand access and bring more people in to try building Essential Apps directly on their phone. Essential Space updates are rolling out separately through Google Play, with MCP support arriving in October and the redesigned capture experience arriving in November. All other confirmed Nothing OS 5.0 features are available in the Open Beta. Real-time translation in Essential Voice is also coming later this year. Once you join through Beta Hub, the Open Beta update can take up to 5 minutes to appear. If you see a stable update first, install it and check again. The Open Beta will follow. The access channel stays open for 7 days. After that, it closes to new participants. 🗣️ Share your feedback Once you’ve installed it, share your feedback through Settings > System > Feedback, or join the dedicated Nothing OS 5.0 Open Beta discussions here on Community.
