Vivo Funtouch OS 12 is based on Android 12, and it brings almost all the new features that Google has baked into the stock version of Android 12. Apart from that, the company has also added some of its own features. As of now, the brand has not officially revealed all Funtouch OS 12 features. It has revealed a couple of features, including an updated user interface design and UI widgets similar to Origin OS. The company is also introducing the Extended RAM (Virtual RAM) feature, which works by leveraging the internal storage of the device to offer more memory to keep apps active and improve multitasking. Furthermore, we also can expect the brand to emphasize privacy and security in its Funtouch OS 12 since Android 12 is big on those two aspects.
