Rob ⚡️ when is the stable release coming to Phone 1? It was scheduled in the beginning of 2025, but there is no update 🙁

App Drawer

Is it possible to add a background photo selection as an option in OS 3.0 because as we compare with premium device the dark mode which they are top notch for example consider s24 with phone 1 both have amoled screen but as we look closer the s24 has more contrast and it is exact black and look gorgeous in App tray.

If possible please make it more dark for app drawer or just display dim wallpaper as your app tray background

Hello everyone, i’m new here and dont if this is The right place to give OS 3.0 a review but here it goes.

  • Apps icons in folder sometimes go blank, and i have close and open the folder again to have them visible
  • Lock screen photo widget does not let you select which picture or folder you want to show… only available on normal screen.
  • When using whatsapp vocal note you have to longpress and swipe up to activate it, but it activates gemini so i changed the settings, but it still brings you back to the screen sélection view… a real pain. It’s a real finger gymnastix to activate a vocal note on whatsapp now.
  • Major pain for me, bluetooth does not automatically connect to every apparel. Like for instance in my car i always have to put the password and associate, every single time! … it does not stay connected or reconnect at all. Also i noticed in the bluetooth section you çan choose to say what device is what, i try to set for instance my sennheisers to headphones, and when i go back in, it is back to “define what device this is”… might be the problem.

Other than that i find the new OS way better than 2.6, it is more intuitive but still has some problems.

Thank for Reading m’y first pose, and hope i dont have to fight over bluetooth anymore and soon 😅

I think the company should add some transition effects and customization to the Nothing launcher of Nothing smartphone because there are many other launchers being made by smartphone companies like Samsung’s launcher, Xiaomi Launcher, Honor Magic OS launcher

😇Note - All these companies’ launchers offer a lot of smoothness and customizations, what do you think about it?👍

Merged 1 post from Nothing OS 3.O Launcher update discussion and review.

SatvikKuchhal Hi mate. 2025, this is widely documented. Public beta is ongoing. Stable release is not confirmed but will come later this year.

EllisDagley my UK 2a has the 3.0 now and is running perfectly fine, no issues apart from I can’t find the retro-wide clock.. Apart from that it hasn’t got any issues whatsoever. 🙂

    JasonSean OS 3.0 seemed to have quite a few issues amongst many users before it came to the UK like battery drain, slower charging times, inability to connect to cars via bluetooth and just a general slow feel within the OS. When it comes to your battery, have you noticed any differences with your screen time and how long your 2a takes to charge? Looking to update but don’t want to touch it if it’s as buggy as others have made out.

      I just bought the phone second hand a few days ago (eBay UK) and it already had it. dylanknowsnothing seems fine to be honest. I’ve got a NP1 on OS1, an NP1 on OS2.6 and the 2a on OS3 and they’re all good as far as I can tell. I’m hopscotching between the OS2.3/NP1 and the OS3/2a and they’re both quick with good battery. Apart from Spotify I haven’t loaded many apps and I select options like ’don’t scan for WiFi/mobile networks in background’ etc. all good here 👍

      I think 0S 3.0 should be more smoother and more AI and other features loaded, what do you think of the other half?

        Merged 1 post from More features on OS 3.0 .

        SomjyotiPal all three are great but i’m not pushing them hard in reality, just tweaking the UI look really. 🙂

        Nothing Was 3.0 smooth but I could see a bit of jitter at times. The hot fix update I’ve given is also showing mild occasional jitter. I think it should be given another update to add more smoothness and stop the jitter. And features include photo clips in gallery, circle to search and wallpaper generator which Vyas has provided. If you give something else, it is better to give ai features. And the comment option should be given in the wallpaper generator so that a wallpaper is made after listening to something we write or say in voice, and some more ai options and edit options should be added to the gallery app, and the weather app animation that was said hasn’t come yet, I don’t know when. will come So, I would say that some more features need to be added little by little in the next security update.

        I promise i’ve looked but where are all the funky retro clocks and widgets in the header banner and OS 3.0 video?

        Did some not make the final cut?

          Any news on when it’ll be out in the UK? (Beta tester, nothing phone 2a)

          PrachuryyaBora I haven’t had any problems (but then again I don’t get a lot of daily traffic to my phone). I haven’t noticed any issues at all with communicating.
