Debuted initially as XUI in 2015, the operating system changed its name to XOS in 2016. Claims from the company about unique user customization capabilities are made. As with the original Android OS, XOS supports a wide range of customizations to the system interface.[3][4]
The original XUI 1.0 is based on Android 5.0.[5] Later releases are based on newer Android operating systems. The operating system includes pre-installed applications in all of its versions.[5][6][7][8] XOS includes all functionalities seen in the original Android operating system, including fingerprint and facial recognition unlocking.[6][9]
