It will have been the scandals that have put it in a bad light, it will be the ban that the United States of America has reserved for Huawei, but the security issue for Xiaomi has become of vital importance, so much so that with the new MIUI 12 the functions and customizations in this sense are really many. But this is not enough and therefore the Asian brand has from poco introduced a new function, which significantly improves the security of your device and the data it contains.
As trivial as it may seem and perhaps even too incisive, the new security function of MIUI 12 will also ask for new authorization to access the MIUI Note app, by third-party applications. So if an app attempts to access the Notes, for reading and / or writing, it will only be able to do so with our consent, which must be temporarily approved, rejected or given permanently.
On MIUI 12 a new dialog box (pop-up) has been implemented that will allow us to select if we want allow or deny access to Notes, by the application we are using at the same time and which has requested access to the notes it contains.
MIUI 12 increasingly secure: Xiaomi introduces new access permissions to notes
You may be wondering the meaning of this function, but if you think about it, how many times do we find ourselves taking notes, maybe just passwords or the pin of a credit card that we don't use often and then forget it written right on the digital note. Maybe we saved some compromising message we sent to our lover or who knows what else, anyway why should an app have to enter our notes and notes?
It is therefore a good thing to protect yourself even at the cost of appearing exaggerated, preventing compromising information from being fed to who knows which server. But it does not end there, because in Apple style, Xiaomi for MIUI 12 also introduces new animations that will make it easier to recognize if an application used access to read or write to the clipboard. Currently, the new feature is only available in Chinese ROM MIUI 12 Beta, so it will take some time to see it also appear in the stable Global version.
