A new Game Space feature - which is basically a game launcher that catalogues all the games in one place and claims to provide a better experience - has also arrived on the OnePlus 7 duo with the Android 10-based update. Support for display information based on a specific time, events, and locations for the Ambient Display has been added too. Lastly, OnePlus 7 and OnePlus 7 Pro users can now block spam messages by using keywords, and this can be done by going to ‘Blocking Sections' in the Settings menu of the Messages app.
