Vivo has now equipped its V25 Series and other devices with the Funtouch OS 13.
Based on the newly released Android 13, the upgraded operating system combines design-driven value with new and improved personalization options, upgraded privacy and security features, and new control features for a smoother, uninterrupted experience.
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.
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.
The new app pinning feature helps keep sensitive data secure, providing users with 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.
The 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.
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.
