Clean the speaker thanks to this MIUI setting

Xiaomi speaker

And we start this little compilation with a really useful trick to be able to eliminate all the dirt that accumulates on the speaker of your phone.

Of course, you must bear in mind that this is not a miraculous trick that will remove all the dirt from your speakers but, calm down, since from xiaomist you already have a fairly complete tutorial on how you can do it in detail to leave them as new. .

Supermoon mode

Another of the exclusive MIUI functions that we love is the one known as "Supermoon" mode . With it we can get striking photographs of the moon, adding to these different filters to achieve striking effects even doing freehand photography, although the use of a tripod is always highly recommended for a result that is as professional as possible.

To be able to activate this mode we will have to access the settings that we find in the native MIUI application with which our device arrives, and we must bear in mind that not all the company's models are compatible with this function , so perhaps not You will find it in the route that we comment on below:

Super moon
  • Access the camera application of your Xiaomi device
  • Select the "More" section of the mode selector and click on "Supermoon"
  • Once inside the mode, we can select different effects such as silhouettes or even text that we can easily add to our captures of the moon

Dual apps

Of course, one of the star features that has accompanied MIUI for several years now is the possibility of using duplicate applications . Many other layers of customization have already added these types of functions to their software, but Xiaomi's was one of the first to be able to enjoy it.

This tool consists of, for example, being able to have two WhatsApp accounts on the same phone without the need to install third-party applications , something really useful for devices with dual SIM or for people who need to have their leisure account on the same device and your work account.

Expand your phone's RAM memory via software

One of the latest features to arrive is the long-awaited expansion of RAM memory via software that Xiaomi has begun to implement in its phones. It is true that, at least for the moment, there are not many devices in which we can find this option , but as the MIUI development team finalizes its implementation, we will have an update that will allow our terminal to receive it.

Thanks to this, devices such as the Xiaomi Mi 11 will be able to expand their RAM memory by up to 3 GB, reaching a total of 11 GB , a more than reasonable amount to be able to manage all the tasks that we carry out in our day-to-day with the computer.

Expand Ram
  • Access the settings of your Xiaomi phone
