All Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO smartphone users are eagerly awaiting the arrival of HyperOS, which is poised to be a game-changer in the tech world. The official launch of this operating system is scheduled for the first quarter of 2024, and it is expected to debut alongside the new Xiaomi 14 in Spain. To keep you informed, a simple and free app in the Play Store can now tell you if your device will receive the HyperOS update.
For those not deeply involved in the tech scene, HyperOS represents a significant shift as it aims to eventually replace the longstanding MIUI. This transition, while bittersweet due to MIUI’s significance in the history of Xiaomi phones, promises a renewal that will bring a host of exciting changes.
Before we delve into the application and its functionality, it’s crucial to clarify that HyperOS will not completely replace Android on Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO smartphones. Google’s Android will remain, providing the latest updates, but it will be complemented by additional software that will give Xiaomi devices a unique edge.
How the HyperOS Updater App Works
Many Xiaomi users are eagerly anticipating the arrival of HyperOS, but the first step is to determine if their device is compatible with this update. Fortunately, there’s an app called “HyperOS Updater,” developed by our colleagues at Xiaomiui, designed to simplify this process. Even for those with limited technical knowledge, it’s incredibly straightforward.
The HyperOS Updater app is lightweight, taking up only 18 MB of storage space, so you won’t have to worry about storage constraints. Simply visit the Google Play Store, click ‘Install,’ and the app will start downloading and installing. Once installed, open the app, and it will automatically detect your device model, which you can see at the top of the screen. Just below the model, a message will indicate whether your Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO device is eligible for the HyperOS update or if it will receive Android 14 in the future. It’s that simple; no additional steps are required.
Additionally, the app provides an option to download the latest system update if one is available. By clicking the ‘Check For Update’ button at the bottom left, the most recent update will appear in the middle if it’s ready for download. You can explore what’s new by tapping the arrow next to the “What’s New” message or select the blue arrow to initiate the download.
Once the download is complete, you’ll be prompted to either install the update immediately or defer it to a later time. Armed with this user-friendly app, you’re ready to discover if your Xiaomi device will soon run HyperOS, and you can share this exciting news with friends who own Xiaomi smartphones.
