TL;DR

• Nothing has published a post that explains its future plans and elaborates on the new Lock Glimpse feature.
• Select non-flagship devices will now include a selection of third-party partner apps and services.
• The company says it plans to keep third-party apps minimal and easy to remove.

The Android 16-based Nothing OS 4.0 beta just recently expanded to include the Phone 3a and 3a Pro. While the update includes everything from the original changelog, it also includes a few new features, like Lock Glimpse and a new “Stretch” camera preset for the Camera app. The reveal of Lock Glimpse isn’t exactly going over well with the community, as fans are describing it as bloatware that serves ads. Nothing has now released a new blog that offers more details on the feature and shares the company’s future plans.
