SHENZHEN, Oct. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

 

- This new operating system brings new personalization options, security

upgrades, and more easy-to-use features for a smoother, uninterrupted experience

 

vivo has officially launched the new Funtouch OS 13 for users in overseas

markets. Based on the newly released Android 13, this upgraded operating system

combines vivo's design-driven value with new and improved personalization

options, upgraded privacy and security features, and new control features for a

smoother, uninterrupted experience. vivo not only strives to provide users with

an effortless experience, but also seeks to empower them to express their

creativity and uniqueness through their devices.

 

The Funtouch OS 13 allows users more visual control of their home screen. With

the monochrome icon feature, users can now change the color of their home

screen icons to match their wallpaper, system, and app interfaces, truly

unlocking their creativity and self-expression.

 

 

On top of that, the new system allows users to customize colors on their

system's UI and built-in apps, including their notification panels, volume

control, calculator, and clock. It can utilize the color from the users'

preferred wallpaper and theme to determine the appropriate color tint, applying

it to the app interface to transform the device with a more personal look and

feel.

 

Further protection and security

 

The new app pinning feature helps keep sensitive data secure, providing users

greater peace of mind regarding their security and privacy. When another person

uses the device, the two-level pinning function keeps the chosen app in view

and prevents access to other apps on the device. This feature enables greater

flexibility, allowing the owner to set parameters and control the allowed

actions within the pinned app when other people are using the device.

 

This update also allows users to hide photos and videos as well as selectively

choose various applications' access to specific photos, thereby preventing

unwanted viewing on their devices and further enhancing privacy protection.

 

Enhanced controls and easy-to-use features to provide greater convenience

 

To create a more streamlined experience for vivo users, the Funtouch OS 13 also

features improved application management, the iManager, which can specifically

help monitor app usage time. If the CPU usage is too high, users can shut that

application down with one tap. iManager can also prevent overheating by

reducing the number of active applications and adjusting CPU frequency based on

the Phone cooling feature.

 

In addition to weather updates, the dashboard also features an AQI card for

health-conscious users who wish to instantly check the latest information

concerning air quality with a detailed PM2.5 index available.

 

With vivo's well-known premium mobile photography experience, new photo and

video upgrades are to be expected. The professional viewfinder makes

photography easier with a new stabilization ring that helps mitigate the

effects of shaky hands.

 

The new OS has also refined the video editing process, enabling users to mute

the sound of the video while editing the footage and even make precise volume

adjustments on each segment of the video, thus facilitating the creation of

professional-grade videos.

 

In terms of accessibility controls, enhancements have been made with color

correcting and inversion, as well as the option to remove animations for users

with specific needs, such as visual impairments.

 

The Funtouch OS 13 will be available from October 24, 2022, starting with the

X80 Pro. vivo will gradually bring Funtouch OS 13 to more users around the

world with the most innovative experiences yet seen.
