The new OxygenOS feature was developed in OnePlus’ India R&D centre in
Hyderabad
OnePlus, the global
technology brand, today announced OnePlus Scout, its latest OxygenOS feature
created and developed entirely out of its R&D centre in Hyderabad. The
feature is being piloted for Indian OnePlus users. OnePlus Scout is part of the
OnePlus launcher beta program on Google Play Store. Based on user feedback, it
will be made available to all Indian users in the coming weeks.
With OnePlus Scout, the OnePlus user can perform actions that previously
involved three or more clicks with one swipe up from Home Screen. It is a
universal search feature that lets you find anything on your device via the
current app drawer whether it's files, contacts, documents, music, or apps.
OnePlus Scout also lets you browse content in your apps, like movies, nearby
locations, services, and more.
In addition to these
high frequency use cases, you can find solutions to simple math problems, find
the latest news, look for the weather in any city or even use the microphone
available on the search bar to find anything.
With the upcoming launch of OxygenOS 11, along with new global features,
OnePlus will be revamping its India-specific features like Work-Life Balance
and SMS Categorisation.
