OnePlus recently released the OxygenOS 13 A.10 update for OnePlus 11 users, which brought several enhancements and fixes. While some of these improvements were mentioned in the official change log, there are a few hidden gems that were not highlighted. These small yet significant changes have the potential to greatly enhance the user experience. OnePlus decided to include them in the update earlier than planned to gauge user feedback. Let’s explore these hidden gems that are now available to OnePlus 11 users.

Close the App Drawer with Swiping Down:

Addressing a common user complaint, OnePlus has reintroduced the ability to close the App Drawer by simply swiping down. Previously, users were required to use the Home gesture or button to exit the App Drawer. This change comes as a result of valuable user feedback, ensuring a smoother navigation experience.

More Access to the App Drawer:

One of the accessibility features in OxygenOS was the ability to access the App Drawer by swiping up anywhere on the home screen. However, this feature had a limitation: it could only be triggered when there were no widgets present. OnePlus has now eliminated this restriction, allowing users to access the App Drawer effortlessly, regardless of widget placement. Additionally, a reverse gesture has been introduced to access the notification drawer or Shelf.

Line Removed between Frequently Used Apps and App Drawer:

As part of their pursuit of a minimalist design, OnePlus has made a subtle adjustment to the App Drawer. The visible line that separated the frequently used apps row from the rest of the drawer has been removed. This change provides a cleaner and more seamless appearance to the App Drawer, creating a visually appealing user interface.

Improved Clock Widget on the Shelf:

For users utilizing the Clock Widget on the Shelf, OnePlus has addressed a minor issue. The display of cities on the Clock and World Clock widgets now shows the complete city name, eliminating the need for ellipses. No longer will you be left wondering if “New …” refers to New Delhi or New York. This fix ensures accurate and convenient information at a glance.

OnePlus has in the past announced a new update policy for its smartphones, OnePlus 8 and 8 Pro were among those happy users who were excited about OxygenOS 14 but sadly, it looks like these devices will soon be considered under the EOL (End of Life) category after a few months from now.

Generally, the company releases the updates together for the entire OnePlus 8 Series including Oneplus 8T but this time Oneplus announced the closed beta program for Oneplus 8T excluding Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro. Oneplus 8T might get the OxygenOS 14 stable build next year depending on how the close beta testing and open beta testing programs go. But it’s confirmed that Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro users won’t get OxygenOS 14.

Oneplus 8 OxygenOS 14

Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro were released in the month of April 2020. So as per the even new policy OnePlus 9 Series and Oneplus 8 Series will only get three years of major OS updates and four years of security updates. So the Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro which were released in April 2020 already received three major OS updates; now they will only receive security patches before they are considered under EOL (End of Life) category. But Oneplus 8T was released in the month of October 2023 so that just completed three years. But before October, we already had a few OxygenOS 14 builds for higher-end Oneplus smartphones, so technically, Oneplus 8T should get OxygenOS 14, not Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro. How many of you guys have Oneplus 8 and 8 Pro? Let us know below.
