The Nothing Phone (2a) has recently received Nothing OS 2.5.5 update, which includes camera improvements, bug fixes, and the April security patch. Now, the Nothing Phone (2) is also getting this new update, featuring added integration with Open AI’s ChatGPT, as well as a variety of bug fixes and camera applications.
With this update, Nothing is introducing a ChatGPT widget for quick access from the home screen. Additionally, users will now have the option to easily copy and paste screenshots and clipboard text into a new conversation within the ChatGPT app. Please note that the ChatGPT app needs to be downloaded separately before using this feature.
Furthermore, the Nothing OS 2.5.5 with ChatGPT integration will also be rolled out to Nothing Phone (1) and Phone (2a) later this month. In June, the ChatGPT integration will be available on the newly launched Ear and Ear (a) earbuds, as well as on all Nothing and CMF products.
The Nothing OS 2.5.5 update brings Ultra XDR mode in the camera app, HDR toggle for Photo and Portrait modes, ring mode in the quick settings for sound management, RAM booster, new recorder, and battery widgets. It also includes improvements in system stability, NFC and Wi-Fi connectivity, volume settings optimization, bug fixes, and general performance enhancements.
