{Disarmed} Discover five hidden settings of MIUI 13 that you may not have known

MIUI 13 is the latest version of MIUI , Xiaomi's customization layer. This is coming to more and more Xiaomi devices and has many new features that you may not know about.

One of the charms of MIUI is that it has many hidden functions , but they are really useful. This customization layer now works much more smoothly in this latest version.

Before starting with the different settings, keep in mind that some of them can also be used on other Android phones and even on phones that have MIUI 12.5 .

Extend RAM

RAM is a key element in our device to improve the performance of our smartphone. It can be activated from the settings in a really simple way, although we must bear in mind that when extending the RAM memory , what this option does is block internal storage and use it as a traditional RAM:

To extend the memory in MIUI 13 you must do the following:

• Access the settings and enter " Additional settings ".
• go to " Memory extension ".
• Activate the option and, automatically, the system will reserve part of the storage to use it as RAM memory .
• Reboot the phone for the change to take effect.

Eliminate advertising with a private DNS

On mobile phones, it is also possible to eliminate the advertising of some services through a personalized DNS , although this DNS will be known by those web pages that we browse.

The DNS is basically the point of sending and receiving information packets between our smartphone and the network , which means that privacy can be affected.

The packets enter through this point, despite the fact that they are encrypted, which makes it impossible to read them, they will know their origin . In this case we will use AdGuard, one of the most popular DNS.

To activate private DNS you must do the following:

• Enter MIUI 13 settings and go to " Connection and sharing ".
• Scroll down to " Private DNS " and enter the menu.
• Check " Private DNS Provider Hostname " and type dns.adguard.com .
• Save and the private DNS will be filtering the advertising.

• Open the MIUI 13 camera app.
• Click on the icon of the three horizontal lines, top right .
• Click on " Settings ".
• Scroll down to " Keep Settings ".
• Choose what you want to keep or undo when opening and closing the camera.

Put multitasking horizontal

Finally, a setting that not many people know about MIUI is that it is possible to change how we want the open windows of multitasking to be distributed . We can put them in horizontal format instead of windows.

To change the design of recent apps you must do the following steps:

• Make the pinch gesture at the beginning of your mobile , on the desktops.
• Click on the lower cogwheel, the icon on the right.
