London-based technology company Nothing has begun rolling out feature updates for its AI-powered hub, Essential Space. Designed to function as a “second memory,” Essential Space aims to streamline the process of capturing, organizing, and recalling ideas and content.
One of the key updates is the introduction of Camera Capture. Users can now utilize the Essential Key within the Nothing Camera app to directly capture real-world content. With a short press, they can add notes, while a long press allows voice input. This feature helps differentiate quality photos stored in the Nothing Gallery app from photo reminders saved in Essential Space.
Essential Space is exclusively available to customers using the Phone (3a) and Phone (3a) Pro and continues to evolve. Upcoming features, such as Smart Collections, Focused Search, and Flip to Record, are slated for launch in the coming months, promising even more functionality.
“AI is just one part of the Essential Space recipe,” noted Rishi Kishor Gupta, Regional Director for the Middle East & Africa at Nothing. “At Nothing, we see AI becoming a buzzword. Our focus is to offer something meaningful—helping users declutter their lives without switching between apps.”
In addition to these updates, the Nothing OS 3.1 introduces improvements to the camera and Always On Display. Users can access updates through their device settings under System Updates, with a staggered rollout planned for Phone (3a) series owners.
This latest development solidifies Nothing’s commitment to enhancing user experiences by integrating AI into everyday tools, creating a seamless and efficient environment for capturing and managing information. The evolution of Essential Space highlights Nothing’s innovative approach to technology, catering to the needs of modern users.
