We are not strangers to this type of news: the earthquake alert on MIUI 11 it is a subject that we have already discussed since this summer. We told you, in that of August, how the function to help users a "Predict" an earthquake was going to be implemented on MIUI 11. Later we had a trial of its operation days ago, but on one We TV 5.
