5 Tips Handling That Hot MIUI (XIAOMI)

Hello MIUIers,

Welcome to the first volume of Mi Bunny Tips thread in 2018. In our previous threads we have got a lot of requests to provide Best Battery Saving tips. Earlier we have provided several tips to get the most out of your phones' battery. This time we are sharing few more cool tips with you to get the best battery performance on your favorite smartphone.

1. Turning on the power saving mode:

Activating the power saving mode can increase battery life. For most devices, all you have to do is swipe down from the top of the screen to bring up a menu. Scroll to the side until you find the power saving option, and select it. The power saving mode may slow your phone down a little. In MIUI you will find the option under Settings >> Battery & Performance

2. Turning off the unused apps:

Closing the app by pressing the back or home buttons is not enough; the app may continue to run in the background and drain battery power. You should access your device's recent and background apps and shut them down manually. This will usually ensure they are not running in the background and using battery power. In MIUI you will find the option just by pressing the Left navigation key.

3. Keeping the apps updated:

There's a reason developers constantly update apps, and most of the time it's for memory or battery optimization. Keeping your apps updated also means you have the best optimizations available. Likewise, delete old apps you no longer use, because these may be running background processes that chew up RAM and battery life.

4. Choosing battery saving option for         individual apps:

Once you've ensured your apps are up-to-date you can go through them individually and check if they're optimized for battery life. This can be done quite quickly. In MIUI 9 you will find this option under Settings >> Battery & Performance

5.Turning off vibration and haptic feedback:

Unless you really need that added awareness, turn off vibration alerts for incoming calls. It actually takes more power to vibrate your phone than it does to ring it. Turn off haptic feedback too (that buzz you get from typing on the keyboard). Sure it feels cool, but it doesn't really add anything to your experience, and it's another battery drainer.
