10 Things You Should Know About Your Xiaomi Mobile – Mi Phones
Xiaomi MIUI 8 Features :
Features list is too long in MIUI 8. however, I tell all that in short.
=> Second Space :
This is the most awaited and popular feature of MIUI 8. Xiaomi change the thinking of peoples. Before this peoples always search for How to hide apps in My Mobile, Separate space for my app, App hiding in my android etc etc. and some user also pay to third party apps which are able to hide apps in their mobiles. But now Xiaomi MIUI team change the whole scenario, they Introduced Second Space features in Xiaomi.
Through the help of Second Space feature you can create a separate space for your phone with separate pattern password.
Means there is no need to hide a particular app. Now you hide the whole phone from others through the help of Second Space feature. Just enable it and enjoy. Sadly Second space feature available for selected devices. Enable process & comfortability of Second Space
=> Dual App :
Suppose if you want to install dual WhatsApp or dual facebook and any other app which allow only single installation on a particular phone. then there is no need to worry if your install more then one.
Through the help of Dual App feature, you can install two apps on same device.
So don’t need to carry 2 mobiles just because of WhatsApp, hike or any other third party app.
=> Calculator :
In the stock Android, you only get normal calculator function. We also have same in MIUI 7. But now in MIUI 8, you found an awesome converter tool in your calculator where you convert everything like currency, weight, length, power and much more.
=> New Designed Toggle bar :
In MIUI 8, you experience a new interface in toggle design. Where in MIUI 7, we have two separate sections for toggle icons and our notifications. But in MIUI 8 you can see all of them on a single page. However, if you don’t like new design then you can switch old toggle style via follow this article.
=> Notes :
This is our daily usages function which is helpful in our several tasks. Now you can set a theme on any notes. set a background in your notes. one impressive feature is now you can also hide notes. Previous we only able to hide files but now you can also enjoy Notes hiding with a particular pattern.
=> Long Screenshot :
When we think about any new feature and Xiaomi introduce with us. I always think to capture my whole menu screen but unable to capture. but now i easily handle my task with the help of long screenshot feature in MIUi 8. Do you know, we can capture screenshot through 4 ways in our Xiaomi phone.
=> Gallery :
A whole new view of the gallery. In the Previous one, we don’t know which photo is synchronized which not. But now in MIUI 8, you can clearly see an icon of every photo which indicates that your photo is not synchronized. Now you can easily delete your photos from Mi cloud and your local storage in same time. Now there is no need to visit Mi cloud for your photos if you use different devices on same Mi account. All Photos Syncs same time on both of the Devices. Video edit and photo edit also give an advantage to the gallery.
=> Settings :
In the setting section, you found a textbox on the top. which is more helpful to you. how ? many times you want to do changes in settings for your desired functions. for this purpose you go to settings then this this then finally this. But now all steps cover by this text box. just search what you want in settings. and you find your relevant result in just one second. like blocklist, app lock, toggle,child lock etc.
