Features of MIUI Security App

We will make an effort to describe every aspect of the app in this area. Consequently, they are included below.

Cleaner

This tool is designed to regularly analyse your files and remove temporary, useless files, as well as app caches that are no longer required.

It checks your cache, unnecessary files, leftover APK files from installing things, RAM, and other things. After the scan is complete, you can decide what needs cleaning and what shouldn't be cleaned, then leave the rest to MIUI Security.

Security Check

This tool is intended to frequently scan your device for any anomalies or suspicious activity.

It checks your payments, WiFi, anything suspicious, and other things.

Battery This opens the same settings page that shows your battery level, screen on time, battery use, how many batteries have been utilised by apps, and other information.

On this page, you may also enable battery saver and ultra battery saver, adjust the work level of your device to performance (if supported), and more.

utilisation of data

You can limit the amount of mobile data you receive per SIM card and adjust the bundle on this page (if carrier does support).

protection of privacy

The page that appears when you access settings is the same as this one. You may view everything linked to privacy using it.

You may browse all of your installed apps here, manage them, delete their data, check how much of your phone's resources they consume, and perform other actions.

Toolbox

The MIUI Security app has a tab that displays as you scroll down that lists all the additional capabilities that are supported by your phone. As much as we can, we will also describe each one separately.

Resolve issues

As implied by the page's name, it is used to diagnose and fix issues with your device.

It checks your mostly hardware to see if anything is out of the ordinary or not functioning. It checks the battery, network, settings, performance, and other software-related aspects of your phone.

A second area

This function essentially creates a separate user area from your primary system on your phone.

Any apps you install there won't be able to tell that you're on the second system because the second space has its own files that are separate from the main apps.

SOS for help

This emergency function from MIUI is really helpful if you ever find yourself in a circumstance where you need it.

The feature is by default disabled, however you can quickly enable it here with just a switch. When it is turned on, as stated in the description, it will begin summoning emergency services for you when you hit the power button five times quickly.

Locate device

This function allows you to locate your misplaced device using Xiaomi's services to check its whereabouts remotely.

If you can't find the device, you can lock it remotely as well, rendering it utterly useless even after a factory reset.

Blocklist

It's a shortcut on the MIUI Security app because it's the same page from settings and the phone app.

From here, you can ban irritating users as well as their SMS messages and other communications.

two apps

This feature is similar to the one for the second space, except it uses the storage on your primary system rather than a separate one.

You can select any app to use as a dual app on this page, and you can also deactivate it if you've ever used it.

Hidden applications

The MIUI Security app has a shortcut to this feature, which was previously located in the settings section of the home screen.

Any programme you desire in this list can be hidden or revealed with a single switch.

saves batteries

It is a shortcut on the MIUI Security app because this is the same page from the battery settings and also in the standard settings app.
