A standout feature is “Shared Widgets,” allowing users to share interactive widgets with contacts and family members. Additionally, pop-up windows are now dynamic, supporting resizing and repositioning.

Nothing OS has always offered a customizable lock screen, and this update takes it further with new widget styles, including an analog clock for the clock app. Users can now choose from various shapes and sizes to personalize their lock screens.

The quick settings panel has been revamped for easier customization. A new smart drawer automatically categorizes apps into folders based on usage patterns, similar to Xiaomi’s HyperOS feature. The system font has also been updated for improved readability.

Standalone Gallery App and Other Improvements

Nothing OS 3.0 introduces a standalone gallery app integrated with AI-powered features like search and photo editing, enhancing the overall multimedia experience.

Users can expect faster performance and better multitasking, making app launches and system navigation smoother than ever.
