Xiaomi confirmed at the beginning of last August that it will reduce the number of ads and advertising that MIUI shows to users. Previously we explained how the Chinese company makes money with the ads and even offered a guide on how to eliminate advertising on your Xiaomi mobile. Now the firm seems to have a solution for these annoying ads, as users can deactivate MIUI advertising with a simple switch.
Xiaomi users have had problems with MIUI ads for a long time since the company’s customized user interface is full of advertising. The manufacturer has already announced that the ads were an integral part of its business model and that it would not eliminate them. However, it seems that Xiaomi has now changed its mind and will allow users to deactivate MIUI advertising with a simple switch, as reported from ITHome.
The source notes that a Xiaomi product manager and MIUI experience manager has announced that users will soon be able to deactivate ads in MIUI. To do this, the Chinese company is testing an “ad switch” that will allow users to deactivate advertising. A function that can be found in Settings> Privacy Agreement, etc.> Advertising system tools.
Thanks to a ‘switch’ you can deactivate the ads
At the moment this new function is being implemented for some users of the MIUI beta in China, but before officially launching it, the company needs even more time to test this feature. In addition, this ad switch will reach all compatible models with the next big stable MIUI update.
The source also indicates that the Chinese company has been working on this new feature for three months, although at the moment it has not commented on it to offer more information on how this switch works to deactivate EMIUI advertising. However, it is a feature that will be received with open arms by users.
