Xiaomi to replace MIUI with MiOS
By MYBRANDBOOK
According to rumours, Xiaomi intends to replace its MIUI Android skin with the MiOS user interface. The announcement is made thirteen years after MIUI's debut. It's unclear if MiOS will be a brand-new operating system built on top of Android or just an Android skin. The change is said to solve MIUI's weaknesses with regard to animation effects.
Tipster Digital Chat Station (translated from Chinese) claims in a Weibo post that Xiaomi has decided that MIUI 14 will be the "last official major version" of MIUI. The tipster goes on to state that the only shortcoming of the smartphone maker's popular Android skin were the animation effects. Xiaomi first introduced MIUI in August 2010 and the company has released 14 major versions of the operating system so far.
It is currently unclear whether Xiaomi plans to launch its own "standalone" operating system based on the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) — just like Huawei did with the release of HarmonyOS — or whether the purported MiOS will be released as a software layer on top of Google's Android that is offered to manufacturers along with Google's services.
Even if MiOS is a redesigned version of Xiaomi's Android skin for its smartphones, the refreshed branding could help the company shed the perception that its MIUI skin features advertisements — Xiaomi's skin has not displayed advertisements or promotions for several years, but some customers still associate the software with ads.
