Recently developed at IIT Madras, BharOS is an AOSP (Android Open Source Project) based operating system.
It is developed by JandK Operations Private Limited (JandKops), which is a non-profit organisation incubated at IIT Madras.
BharOS comes with No Default Apps (NDA). This means that users will get most of storage space, unlike Android.
With BharOS, users won’t be forced to use apps that they may not be familiar with or that they may not trust.
Users will also be able to receive ‘Native Over The Air’ (NOTA) updates, similar to Android phones. The developers assert that NOTA updates are automatically downloaded and installed on the device, so users don’t need to manually initiate the process.
