Nothing has released a substantial software update for its first smartphone, the Phone (1).

The company announced the update via its official Discord server. “A new chapter for our first smartphone on the market,” wrote Rob Godwin, Nothing’s community manager. “Upgrade to Nothing OS 2.0 for exciting new features, increased customization, and enhanced functionality.”

New additions include the Phone (2)'s signature theme suite, which gives everything a unique monochromatic look. Nothing has also brought along the Phone (2)'s Quick Settings widgets, which let you flip a switch whenever you want to enable or disable certain features of the Phone (1), such as the rear glyph lights. You can now also add the widgets to your device's lock screen. Additionally, the update adds the option to enable 'essential' glyph notifications for your most important apps and contacts. In practice, these keep the Phone (1)'s rear glyph lights on until you've addressed the notification. Elsewhere, the addition of the Clone app lets Phone (1) users run two instances of the same app on a single device. That's handy for those who need to manage multiple social media accounts without too much fuss.

Nothing OS 2.0 is based on Android 13. Nothing is currently testing a version of the skin that runs on Android 14, though that update does not yet have a release date. If your phone (1) hasn't prompted you to install Nothing OS 2.0 yet, you can manually attempt to download the update by heading to the "System Update" section of your Settings menu. Nothing never released the phone (1) in the US, but the phone (2) is available now for $599 and up.
