Summary

  • Nothing Phone (3)'s Nothing OS V3.5-250829-1700 update adds two new Glyph toys and a “Stretch” camera preset.
  • The update integrates the September 2025 security patch, major camera upgrades and bug fixes.
  • This update also lets users enable Glyph Mirror in the Nothing Camera app.

Nothing has now started rolling out a new update for the Phone (3). The latest update brings playful Glyph additions, a creative camera preset, critical system fixes and more. 

The Nothing OS V3.5-250829-1700 update to the Phone (3) introduces two new Glyph Toys, namely, Compass and Feed the Fly. While the former Glyph Toy, as it sounds, "points you in the right direction," the other is a mini game to test reflexes.

In addition, a new Glyph Mirror mode has also been added to the Nothing camera app, letting users turn the rear camera into a live mirror by swiping down in the viewfinder. 

Nothing has also partnered with photographer Jordan Hemingway to debut a "Stretch" camera preset, which enhances photos with deeper shadows and extended highlights for a striking, dramatic effect. 

The update also improves the camera performance with smoother continuous shooting, reduced shutter lag, more consistent colour accuracy and more. Stability in third-party apps is also said to have been optimised. 

Beyond new features, the release fixes issues with ringtones, stopwatch, widgets and the Glyph Matrix notifications. Moreover, it also brings forth added system stability and includes the September 2025 security patch. Head over to Nothing Community to take a look at the complete changelog

The latest Nothing Phone (3) update is rolling out in phases and users can check availability via Settings -> System -> System updates. Apart from that, Nothing OS 4.0 is expected to drop soon and we're on the lookout for that. So, stay tuned for more updates on it all.
