The new UI also gives you the option to use third-party launchers, like Nova Launcher, Apex Launcher, or Microsoft Launcher, to customize the software even further as per your choice.

2. Improved Dark Modes

Since its inception, Dark mode has become quite popular among smartphone users. Even I'm also using personally using most of the apps in the dark mode. It is pleasing to the eyes and is said to give a slightly better battery life.

In the new Realme UI 2.0, there is an improved and customizable dark mode you can use. You can now choose three types of dark modes from in the skin, enhanced (pure black), medium, and gentle (light gray).

Although it might not change the user experience much, it's good to have three different customizable options in the dark mode.

As per Realme, this feature can be auto-adjusted depending upon the ambient light striking on the smartphone's display.

Apart from the improved dark modes, the new Realme software skin also gives you visual improvements in the form of Always-on Display.

With Android 8 Oreo, Google introduced the dedicated Digital Wellbeing feature to track the app usage and find the right balance with our lives.

Now Realme UI 2.0 has taken it even further by adding its own' Sleep Capsule' feature along with all other Digital Wellbeing additions in Android 11.
