Nothing Is Now Rolling Out the Nothing OS 2.0 Update for Phone (1) Users

Nothing Phone (1) users can finally rejoice, as Nothing is now rolling out the highly anticipated Nothing OS 2.0 update. The update is around 0.97GB in size and includes several welcome changes, including some of the most requested features such as App Lock and Cloned Apps, as well as the new Nothing Launcher, Nothing Icon Pack, and all of the new widgets that can be used on the home screen and lock screen.

Notably, many of these features have already been enjoyed by Nothing Phone (2) users since its initial launch.

What's New in Nothing OS 2.0.2

App Lock

One of the standout additions in the Nothing OS 2.0.2 update is the introduction of the App Lock feature. With this feature, you can keep your sensitive apps and data securely tucked away.

Cloned Apps

With Cloned Apps, Nothing Phone (1) users can now run two instances of the same app on a single device without downloading third-party apps. This feature is particularly useful for apps like WhatsApp, enabling you to manage two separate accounts without the need for multiple devices.

The All-New Nothing Launcher and Icon Pack

The Nothing launcher has been revamped to provide a more polished grid structure, the ability to hide icon labels, and more folder customization options. There is also a sweet new monochromatic icon pack that goes well with the theme of Nothing OS.

Widgets Galore

The update also includes a variety of widgets that can be placed on both your home screen and lock screen. You can now customize your smartphone experience to your liking, from weather forecasts to quick glance widgets.

Glyph Interface

The Glyph Interface now comes with two new features: Firstly, "Essential Notifications" allows you to select specific contacts and apps that are allowed to show constant notifications. Secondly, the Glyph Torch can be used as a flashlight if you long-press the Torch toggle in the notification shade.

1. Open the Settings app on your Nothing Phone (1).
2. Scroll down and select "System."
