No, Nothing is not switching from Android to a customized AI-powered OS. Nonetheless, the telephone model introduced a brand new platform referred to as Important, which is able to lay the groundwork for a future through which customers generate their very own apps and consumer interface. We have heard these concepts earlier than, usually referred to as generative consumer interfaces, and it is nonetheless early days for the know-how.
Nothing’s plan begins with two apps: Important Apps and Playground. The previous permits you to create “apps” with pure language, although these are actually designed within the type of widgets. Simply describe what you want—seize all of the receipts in my digicam roll and export a PDF each Friday—and this can be generated as a widget you possibly can work together with on the house display screen. The Nothing Telephone (3) helps as much as six of those Important apps, however older Nothing units are restricted to 2.
Playground is a spot the place you possibly can publish not simply your Important Apps but in addition different Nothing oddities, like Glyph Toys from the Telephone (3), digicam presets, and EQ profiles. You’ll be able to obtain what the group has made and even “remix” them into your personal. Finally, these options will flip into what Nothing is looking Important OS, which it expects to debut in 2028. (Bear in mind the Important Telephone from 2017? Nothing purchased the corporate’s belongings in 2021, and it looks like it was for the title.)
Nothing debuted a few of these AI options with the “Important” branding earlier this 12 months. Important Area is a brand new app that debuted on the Telephone (3a), triggered by a devoted button; faucet it to seize your display screen and have AI pull insights and summarize the contents. Now, there’s Important Reminiscence, which the corporate says “brings the whole lot collectively by studying your habits, and surfacing forgotten particulars once you want them most.” It is coming quickly, so we’ll have to attend and see to study extra.

Scorching on the heels of Ultrahuman and Oura asserting that it is possible for you to to schedule and take blood labs with their providers, Whoop debuted Whoop Superior Labs. Not solely are you able to add your preexisting blood work to the Whoop app, however you can too ebook blood testing by way of the app (like Oura, Whoop has partnered with Quest Diagnostics). Whoop’s providing is a little more costly, at $199 per check, $349 for 2 assessments per 12 months, or $599 for 4 assessments per 12 months, as in comparison with Oura’s $99 per check. Each purport to mix blood work outcomes with long-term steady monitoring with their respective trackers.
Labs are routine medical assessments that allow medical doctors display screen issues similar to excessive ldl cholesterol, excessive blood glucose, and diabetes, or hormone or ferritin assessments to verify in case your thyroid is working otherwise you’re consuming sufficient iron. They are often costly, inconvenient to schedule and take, and pretty arcane to interpret, so it is sensible that startups are beginning to supply them as a part of their subscription providers.
Nonetheless, it’s a tragic assertion on the present accessibility of well being care that routine medical providers are actually being funneled into income streams for personal corporations. As a lot as I just like the Oura Ring and the Whoop band, they’re not medical doctors; they nonetheless can’t really deal with you for a coronary heart assault or colon most cancers. —Adrienne So
