- Added screen mirroring, which allows for screen mirroring even when the phone screen is off to prevent unnecessary power consumption.
Widgets
- Added the 2x2 Weather kit to increase the diversity of kits.

Global search
- Added the "Quick services" option, which allows you to search for and jump directly to features in system apps, and show apps supporting this feature.
Status bar & notifications
- Added two battery icon styles with support for customising the battery percentage display mode in the status bar.
Multimedia
- Added the Per-app volume control feature, allowing you to adjust the rhythm of music as you like.

Share
- Optimised the experience of previewing multi-image or text and image links.
System
- Added Motion blur, which, through algorithms, simulates the phenomenon of visual persistence during film shooting (dynamic motion blur) to compensate for the incoherence issue during the animation process, improving smoothness when users open and exit apps on the home screen and achieving silky visual smoothness.
- Added App retainer, in which trust-listed apps that are closed by the system can quickly be restored to the status in which they were last used after being restarted. This seamless connection of tasks provides a more coherent product experience.
- Optimised system memory by reducing system resident memory and streamlining resident process memory, thereby reducing the memory occupied by the system during the daily use of the system by users and increasing the available memory for users.
