JAKARTA - Xiaomi has started testing interface or UI updates to its users on MIUI 12.5 and MIUI 12.5 Enhanced Edition. This time Xiaomi brings changes that are more focused on the security system of its mobile applications.
Dubbed MIUI Pure Mode, this is a feature to help users in protecting their phones from malicious apps. The company says because of the open nature of Android, users can easily fall victim to cyberattacks via malicious apps.
Quoting Android Authority, Thursday, September 9, this feature will be a shield for smartphones. Because, as many as 40 percent of applications installed by MIUI users never pass the security audit. In addition, 10 percent of the applications identified as security risks.
To fix this, Xiaomi introduced MIUI Pure Mode. When this feature is enabled, users cannot install apps from external sources and block the installation of any downloaded without the user's consent.
That way, it is hoped that smartphone security will continue to grow and things that are not desirable can be avoided. For users who feel disturbed, this MIUI Pure Mode feature can later be disabled through the settings on their respective smartphones, because this feature is an optional feature.
Currently, the registration for the MIUI Pure Mode beta trial in China has started to be processed and will be distributed from September 6, 2021. The initial trial will be rolled out on 1,000 beta tester devices. When the trial through the beta release is complete, Xiaomi will soon release the official version, it is not yet known for sure when this feature will launch.
