Nothing OS 5.0 brings a new Glyph Interface app and a more customizable homescreen

Nothing OS 5.0 带来全新的 Glyph Interface 应用及更具个性化的主屏幕

With the new design of Nothing OS 5.0, app icons and widgets can use adaptive color to get color tints pulled from your wallpaper, which update whenever your wallpaper changes. Alongside Android’s built-in Dynamic Colors, the company says it allows you to have specific elements change to match your wallpaper “while Nothing’s predominantly monochrome character stays underneath.”

随着 Nothing OS 5.0 的全新设计，应用图标和小组件可以使用自适应色彩，从壁纸中提取色调，并随壁纸的更换而更新。除了 Android 内置的“动态色彩”功能外，Nothing 表示，这允许用户让特定元素与壁纸相匹配，同时“保留 Nothing 以单色为主的标志性风格”。

While I like Nothing’s simplified, monochrome app icons, it’s nice to get an option for adding some limited areas of color to the homescreen. Nothing’s launching it as “an additional theme,” so you can keep using the old design if you like.

虽然我喜欢 Nothing 简约的单色应用图标，但能有一个选项为桌面添加局部色彩也是件好事。Nothing 将其作为“额外主题”推出，因此如果你愿意，依然可以继续使用旧版设计。

The Android 17-based update is launching in open beta on August 26th, starting with the Nothing Phone 3. It will eventually also roll out to most of Nothing’s other phones, but a few older devices aren’t getting this update, including the Phone 1, Phone 2, and CMF Phone 1 — the last of which I’ve been using, so unfortunately I won’t get to try out these new features myself.

基于 Android 17 的更新将于 8 月 26 日开启公测，首发机型为 Nothing Phone 3。该更新最终将推送至 Nothing 的大多数其他手机，但部分旧机型将无法获得更新，包括 Phone 1、Phone 2 和 CMF Phone 1——我目前正在使用最后一款，所以很遗憾，我无法亲自体验这些新功能。

The latest version of Nothing OS also adds a slew of new homescreen customization options and quality-of-life tweaks that will let you track how long you spend away from your phone, or make better use of its Essential AI features. And if you have a Nothing phone with its glyph interface lighting, a new dedicated app pulls all the features and controls into one spot.

最新版本的 Nothing OS 还增加了大量主屏幕自定义选项和体验优化，让你能够追踪离开手机的时间，或更好地利用其 Essential AI 功能。如果你拥有一部具备 Glyph 灯效的 Nothing 手机，全新的专用应用将所有功能和控制选项整合到了一个地方。

Lockscreen clockfaces can also use colors from your wallpaper now. There are also a couple of new lockscreen clockfaces in Nothing OS 5.0, including a bubbly “Gooey” design and an information-dense “Micrographics” one.

锁屏时钟现在也可以使用壁纸的配色。Nothing OS 5.0 还新增了几款锁屏时钟样式，包括充满气泡感的“Gooey”设计和信息密度极高的“Micrographics”设计。

Since Nothing OS 5.0 is built on Android 17, it also includes platform updates like enhanced quick share, Android’s new Noto 3D emojis, and expanded dark theme support. Other new highlights include:
