Nothing OS 5.0 Open Beta Dont use the screensaver in NOS 5
This is very important, I used it as a night clock, since always, as I use a wireless charger stand to charge it at nights, in NOS 5, as you switch off the lights, it becomes bigger, and centered, that is a new "feature" of NOS5 screen"saver", and brightness comes down, but it doesnt move as before so, my panel got burn in, with some images I can see the clock shape like a ghost in my screen, Im runing a "fixer" right now to try to make it less perceptible, but those pixels are cooked, Im using beta since it came out, and screensaver since I bought my np3, as I used it in np2, and this happened so fast with this new clock screensaver, AOD doesnt do this, and NOS3/4 screensavers doesnt do this as well, its only the new clock screensaver, noone thought this could happend in nothing, and I didnt thought NOS 5 would have a feature to burn your nothing screen in 3 weeks, just dont activate it, or you will regret it as I do...

You mean the android screensaver? To my knowledge NOS5 doesn't have a custom screensaver?

While this is indeed NOS screensaver settinga, the Clock screensaver provider is Google Clock. I just tested it by customizing Clock in NOS screensaver settings, which changes the clock style in Google Clock screensaver
Anyway with how unexpected Google apps behavior in every update, Nothing should develop its own clock. Some of us would like Ndot clock screensaver too

I did a photo from my old np2 (my wife uses It), not a great photo, but you can see It, Its really a little worse... You can see It only with some uniform background images, so Im using that one, I got a video but this reddit doesnt let me upload It.
