Nothing has made its Nothing Wallpapers app publicly available to Phone(2) users starting today. Currently, the phone (2) runs Nothing OS 2.5 Open Beta 2 based on Android 14. The app is now available with an update that fixes a bug that caused wallpapers to crash when the blur feature is enabled.
The app version of this update is 1.0.2 and the size is 4.25 MB. The app information in Play Store also shows 10,000+ downloads.
Before this app, the company used to release new wallpapers with OS updates, which made adding wallpapers and new features less frequent. Therefore, the company has decided to add new wallpapers and features through app updates on the Play Store, which can be pushed more frequently and seamlessly, rather than being forced with OS updates.
In the latest Q3 community update Bruno Viegas, Nothing’s head of software design, said that they are now taking advantage of the Google Play Store for widget updates through the Nothing Widgets app, meaning they have to be updated more often rather than being tied to the normal OS. Will be rolled out. Updated schedule. A similar plan is being followed for wallpapers and wallpaper features with this new Nothing Wallpapers app.
This app also includes some unique wallpaper effects for Nothing OS, like the Glass Filter effect which creates vertical lines on the wallpaper with some glass effect that looks amazing.
There is also an Atmosphere filter listed in the app image on the Play Store, which is not currently available, but its purpose is to smoothly transfer your wallpaper from the lock to the home screen with attractive animations, giving your home screen a cleaner and more beautiful look. However, it is necessary to use the same wallpaper to seamlessly transition between the Atmosphere Lock and Home screens. Basically, it is going to transition from a clear lock screen to a blurred home screen with a smooth animation, as we can see in the Play Store app images.
Currently, we have 20 unique Nothing styled wallpapers with Nothing OS 2.5 Open Beta 2, but we can expect new features like new wallpapers and atmosphere filters to be released with the next update of the Nothing Wallpapers app. Right now, the app is only available for Nothing Phone (2) users and will be made available to all Phone (1) and Phone (2) users with the stable Android 14 update.
