Just like other dialer apps, such as
Realme Dialer
or
OnePlus Dialer
, Xiaomi Contacts and dialer aims to
build upon the stock calling experience
that comes from Android and to be more in line with MIUI in terms of presentation and utility. It's also
directly updated by Xioam
i itself.
Xiaomi's take on calling
Compared to the stock Android phone app, Xiaomi Contacts and dialer boast a
sleek and modern UI
design. It utilizes a
tabbed interface
that displays your contact list and favorites, and consolidates
contacts from multiple sources
, such as email addresses and sim cards. It also provides various customization options, including setting
custom photos and alerts
for each person, as well as theming options for the app itself.
What makes this dialer app truly shine though is its feature set. Enable notification light for incoming calls or use the
Flip to Silence
feature if you're in a meeting. You can turn on
Automatic Redial
if someone doesn't pick up immediately or be notified of missed calls. During calls, there's even a
Call Recording
button to record your conversation.
Speaking of taking notes, there is also a
Note
button that will take you directly to the MIUI Notes app to let you jot down points while on a call. Other notable features include
Call Barring
and
Call Forwarding
options depending on your service provider. Now, it should go without saying, but this app is
only for Xiaomi-branded devices
as part of the MIUI overlay.
One of the best
The Xiaomi Contacts and dialer app is one of the most popular third-party dialers right now, and it's not hard to see why. It has a nice-looking UI and
plenty of extra features
that are really handy. It will also receive regular updates from Xiaomi itself. If you own a device made by the company, make sure you're keeping it up-to-date to get the best experience.
