- 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.
