MIUI Smart Toolbox, the “extra” for your Xiaomi apps

All Xiaomi users are waiting for the arrival of the new update of their software. MIUI 13 will be accompanied by multiple novelties that will transform the appearance of our mobile phone into a completely renewed and different one.

For now, we have to wait, since this version will debut, initially, in the middle of this month of December. Meanwhile, Xiaomi has introduced in MIUI a quite striking functionality and that probably sounds familiar to us.

MIUI Smart Toolbox

It is the Smart Toolbox , which is basically a floating box similar to what we have seen in other brands such as OPPO or Samsung, which has nothing to do with hidden functions or anything like that. Currently this tool is being progressively incorporated into smartphones that update the device’s security application , but you will soon be able to enjoy it officially.

What is it for

The operation of this particularity is really simple. Once activated, all you have to do is slide your finger from the side edge of the screen to the center. The procedure is similar to the display of the Game Turbo menu on your Xiaomi when you are playing any game.

The purpose of this function is to improve accessibility to the main applications that we use without having to return to the home screen to enter them. How? Well, adding in the box the apps that you indicate to open them in an instant from any part of the device.

How do I check if I have it?

As we have mentioned before, this Smart Toolbox from the Asian company is only operational on a certain number of phones , although it is possible that you already have it without realizing it. Basically, because it is not necessary to update MIUI, since the tool is linked to Xiaomi’s security software.

If it hasn’t updated on its own, you can easily download the APK and install it on your terminal. Once downloaded and integrated into your smartphone, go to the ‘Settings’ of your Xiaomi. After that, scroll down until you come across the ‘Special Functions’ section . Among the different possibilities that you can observe, ‘Smart Toolbox’ should appear. Otherwise I’m sorry to tell you that you still can’t enjoy this new feature.

At the moment it is unknown for sure when it will reach the rest of the company’s mobiles, since Xiaomi has not commented on this peculiarity, since its appearance has been sudden. In any case, it is expected that it will be integrated throughout this month .
