After a recent leak that Xiaomi is allegedly developing a single switch to enable/disable system advertising, a company representative denied this information. However, the company promised to reduce the number of pre-installed applications, which are often called bloatware.
Many Xiaomi phones offer good value for money, but owners have to put up with obsessive ads right in the user interface. Advertising can be turned off, but for this, you need to perform a lot of manipulations. We even published a couple of years ago a guide to minimizing advertising in system applications. The company itself had previously promised to abandon obsessive advertising but did not keep its word.
Of course, one switch for system-wide advertising would be more affordable and useful than the current approach. Currently, users need to turn off the MSA application, which is hidden deep in the settings menu. However, this does not disable advertising in system applications, so you need to go to the settings menu of each application (File Manager, Music, Downloads, etc.) to disable it.
A recent leak has claimed that Xiaomi is working to introduce a single switch to the interface to get rid of system advertising, but the company has denied this claim. The representative of Xiaomi answered questions from journalists on this subject. According to him, the company is re-optimizing its business strategy in this regard to improve user experience by reducing pre-installed applications. Users should see these results pretty soon in our future flagships.
However, our philosophy is to make changes that will be easily accessible and useful to all users, so at present we do not plan to add a switch, which, in fact, will detect and use only a small number of users, — he added. This thoughtful phrase will do honor to any high-ranking marketer in the world.
Users will certainly be disappointed that HyperOS or MIUI will not have a universal tool shortly to turn off system advertising.
