A few months ago we learned that Xiaomi was working on a new mode for its MIUI 13, which at the time was a version of the customization layer that was still moving within a closed beta. This was called ” pure mode ” and came to make our phone more secure. Now that mode is finally a reality.
Security is one of the most important aspects of our mobiles, if we take into account that we have spent practically our entire lives inside them. Hence, it is becoming more and more common to download malicious software even if we do not realize it. Well, that’s where this “pure mode” can be a great ally.
Your Xiaomi, safer
It was last September when this new mode was seen in the beta of the Xiaomi customization layer. And even then he showed us what it could be used for. Now the users of the brand in China have warned that since yesterday and discreetly this “pure mode” has been launched in MIUI 13 , so it is already a stable functionality within the new layer of the Chinese.
This means that probably the Spanish brand mobiles that are receiving the new version of the customization layer will be able to enjoy this new functionality . This is good news, because at the time it emerged that it was not certain that it would end up reaching a stable version, something that has finally happened.
What is it for?
Well, at the time there was a fairly precise idea of what this new mode was capable of offering us, and basically it has remained in it until its final launch. Basically it is an application that allows us to enjoy a safer experience on our Xiaomi phone, and that improves the existing tools in MIUI 12. And for this, what it does is analyze the apps that we download and that we are going to install in search of malware. It is something similar to the “Security control” mode that exists in Oppo, Realme or OnePlus mobiles.
But there is an important difference in the case of Xiaomi’s tool compared to that of its competition. And it is that in this case it is acted before installing the application , since it is scanned for malware. Something that does not happen in the case of its competitors, who only analyze the malware app once it has been installed, when irreparable damage may have already been caused to the terminal. According to the source, who has had direct access to this pure mode, with it we will enjoy the following.
Virus detection , which analyzes if there is any Trojan or malware in the app. Privacy detection, analyzing if the app is collecting personal data from our mobile. Compatibility detection, it will analyze if the app is compatible with the mobile, in order to avoid blocking situations or recurring restarts due to errors. Review, users will also be able to review, install and test the apps that are allowed on the phone. Without a doubt, it is a complete security suite, which allows us to keep the phone safer, and especially our data. It is expected that in a few weeks this mode will reach the global models of the brand through MIUI 13.
