Google’s Circle to Search feature, which was introduced earlier this year, is now available for three Nothing smartphones – Nothing Phone (2), Nothing Phone (2a), and Nothing Phone (2a) Plus.
If you own any of these Nothing smartphones, Circle to Search can be used by long-pressing the Home button if you have 3-button navigation or by long-pressing the navigation bar if you have gesture-based navigation. The settings for the Circle to Search feature can be found on these phones under their Settings > Special features > Gestures > Navigation mode > Circle to Search menu.

If you aren’t able to use the Circle to Search feature, make sure your Nothing Phone (2) is running Nothing OS 3.0 with build number Pong-V3.0-241207-0124, while the Phone (2a) should be on Pacman-V3.0-241210-2057. Both phones have already received the stable Nothing OS 3.0 update, which is based on Android 15.
