OxygenOS

OxygenOS now has a custom launcher. We no longer ship with Google Now Launcher. The launcher is based on AOSP (Android Open Source Project) but has a few nifty features within it. The launcher supports third party icon packs out of the box and also allows user to change their app drawer grid.
Shelf and the launcher are linked to each other.

We also have another fancy new feature, users can now re-arrange their icons by long pressing on the home screen and clicking re-arrange to fix all the clutter. The launcher also reacts to dark mode which changes the default white background to a dark background with a tint.

App Permissions

Security was also a huge focus when building OxygenOS. App Permissions allows you to control what apps can access, things like location, identity, or contacts. Don’t want a particular app to bother you with notifications? Turn them off.

Customization

Dark Mode enables a system wide Dark Theme on the device. It themes basic elements across the system. It covers stuff like – Settings, Quick Settings, Notification Panel, Volume panel, Launcher app drawer etc.
