Xiaomi will give MIUI freedom: the smartphone will pick up ringtones for incoming calls

It seems that Xiaomi is preparing another new unusual feature for new versions of MIUI's proprietary shell -

automatic selection of ringtones.

How it works

The developers found the description of this function in the code of the beta version of the MIUI 9.8.20 firmware.

The scheme is incomprehensible to the end, but the system itself will beset ringtones for incoming calls from different numbers. True, nobody will change the ringtones for calls from the boss or mom - this applies only to companies that provide various services.

For example, when the food delivery man calls, the smartphone will select one melody, when the taxi driver dials another. As a result, the user will know by sound which service is calling him.

It is unclear how users will get used to it.to unknown ringtones and how the system will recognize services. Most likely, Xiaomi will cooperate with companies that will provide it with phone numbers.

This function was found in the Chinese version of MIUI, so whether it will be available in other countries (and whether it will be released at all) is still unknown.
