![](https://cdn.nothing.community/2026-06-12/1781281081-831748-nothingosrolloutjune12.jpg "banner") Hey Community, We’re making software updates easier to track. This post will be the place to check the latest status of Nothing OS rollouts, feature availability, and app-based updates across Nothing devices. We’ll keep it updated as rollouts progress and new information is ready to share. 👇 Down below you can find a list of FAQ’s along with brief descriptions of the various stages in software development. This also includes some tips on how to stay up to date on our software releases and feature rollouts. --- ## Current Nothing OS rollout status ### Nothing OS 4.0 ✅ Nothing OS 4.0 rollout is now complete for eligible devices. ### Nothing OS 4.1 ✅ Nothing OS 4.1 rollout is now complete for eligible devices. ## Why some features may arrive later, or only on certain devices Not every feature ships to every device at the same time. Some features introduced with Nothing OS 4.1 are currently available on selected devices first. This can happen due to hardware support, optimisation needs, stability testing, or the need to fine-tune the experience before expanding it further. Where possible, we’ll continue working to bring these features to more devices through upcoming updates, including: * Lock Screen clock face customisation * Lock Screen Depth Effect Wallpaper * Breathing Practice widget * Glyph Matrix breathing widget * Flip to Glyph improvements * Updated Nothing ecosystem icons for earbuds and headphones These features are planned to arrive on more devices (Phone (2), Phone (3), Phone (3a) Pro, Phone (3a), Phone (3a) Lite, Phone (2a) Plus, Phone (2a), CMF Phone 1, CMF Phone 2 Pro) starting end of June, with rollout timing varying by device. ## Essential Voice availability 🗣️ Essential Voice is currently available on selected devices, including Phone (3), Phone (4a) Pro, and Phone (4a). As the feature uses cloud-based processing, we’re continuing to evaluate performance, cost, scalability, and overall user experience before confirming wider availability. We’ll share more once we have a clearer timeline. ## App-based updates 📦 Some updates are delivered through the Google Play Store rather than a full Nothing OS rollout. This includes updates to apps and experiences such as Essential Space, Essential Search, Nothing Gallery, Nothing X, and other system apps. These updates may bring new features, improvements, and fixes outside of a major OS release. To make sure you receive them, you can update the apps manually through the Play Store or turn on automatic updates. ## Minor updates ⛏️ Minor updates are smaller releases between major Nothing OS versions. They usually include bug fixes, stability improvements, performance tuning, security updates, and smaller feature additions. In some cases, they may also bring selected features that were not ready in time for the previous major update. These updates may not always look huge on the surface, but they play an important role in making the overall experience smoother and more reliable. ## Firmware Updates bot 🤖 You can also follow our Firmware Updates bot to track the latest minor and major software updates. It posts changelogs for new firmware releases across Nothing and CMF devices, so you can quickly see what has changed, what has been fixed, and which devices are receiving updates. This includes system updates, app-related firmware updates, and audio or wearable product updates where relevant. You can view and discuss the latest changelogs here 👉 [Changelog Posts](https://nothing.community/t/firmware-updates?utm_source=chatgpt.com) ## Major updates take time A major software update is not just a version number. Before it reaches your device, teams across software, product, design, testing, operations, and support work through months of development, compatibility checks, issue fixing, optimisation, and staged rollout planning. That’s why timelines can sometimes shift. We’ll always aim to move fast, but we’ll also prioritise stability and user experience over rushing a release. You can read more about what goes into a major software update here 👉 [Inside a major NOS update](https://nothing.community/en/d/47051-inside-a-major-nothing-os-update) --- We’ll keep this post updated as current rollouts progress. Thanks for being patient with us, and for continuing to push us to be clearer, faster, and better. 👀 And yes, we’ve seen the recent Android 17 announcements. Nothing OS 5.0 is already taking shape. More when we’re ready.

Kapsss 👾 first clear data and cache both for the apps and restart and see it that issue still persist or not…

Check in developer options if these options are enabled or not… disable them

And check if any app has display over other app permission which seems off… you can that in settings>apps >special app permission…

Kapsss 👾

Did all the steps.

After disabling crash dialogue i have disabled devloper mode. Issue still exist, this is some deep shit i guess

JP

Kapsss 👾 yup… contact support…they might have solution…

It’s very new to me👍🏻 update here if you find any solution…

grepGander ahm , ahm ….. I am one such person who shows my lockscreen proudly ….call me a bit insane 😁🫠🤪🤓 , (Judge me … but I like it)

Wait also , ios 27 beta 1 , you can see the added the ability to minimize clock and make it go near the date, hope the people requesting these features understand that we had this since nos3.0

Rohit where the heck is magic eraser in the Nothing Gallery app for the alleged flagship Phone 3? It’s available for 4a and 4a Pro. Absolutely no reason it shouldn’t be on Phone 3!

lolifnotely🇮🇱

JeffW Optimization issues I guess… Many with Phone 3 already have heating and battery drain issues, so deleting more will only make it worse.

I prefer a finished product than unfinished crap released just to please the community, what do you think? 🥲

Zac 🛸 Give the update of Nothing os 4.1 to remain devices with those features which 4 a series already have

Draco

Nothing need to fix the overheating issue (I was just playing Roblox and my phone got traumatized 🥲🥀

JP

Draco 43c is kind of normal in summers .. mine is 40c at charging and around 38c at idle…

lolifnotely🇮🇱

Draco This is nothing, Compared to me….

I just played one game on Delta Force (on medium graphics and frame rate!)

And i no have case

😭😭😭🪦🥀

Draco

lolifnotely🇮🇱 😱😱 Bro

JP But last year I used to play PUBG and it wasn’t even heating that much at 90fps. I think there is a problem or might be because it’s almost a year now the battery can’t handle much load 🏋🏻‍♂️.

What app is this?

SumitPai

Same here, Played WuWa for 2.2 hrs and it drained 33% battery.
In my older vivo phone, i could play 3-3.3 hrs with 15-20% usage (approx) (5000mah too).
In both, FPS set to 30, All settings towards mid to low and No extra features enabled.

JP

SumitPai that’s 33% of total battery used…and not from 100%… it’s very confusing .. it seems your initial battery percentage was somewhere around 90-95 and at the end it was around 20-25 so thats somewhere around 25% battery used from total 100% battery

SumitPai

JP either way, it is too much and phone gets super hot without any case (i remove case while gaming)

JP

SumitPai yup… agree with that… we can’t do with that except sending feedback…

Draco that’s possible… i stopped playing pubg around 6-7 months and don’t play games on my phone nowadays…

Nos4.x have some bad optimisation that’s causing this issue… let’s see what happens next…
