One of our biggest complaints with every Xiaomi smartphone is the
ads in MIUI. Xiaomi doesn't seem to think it's necessary to give its customers
an ad-free experience even after they've paid for a smartphone. MIUI is
notorious for sending promotional messages via notifications from pre-loaded
apps such as Mi Browser, Mi Music, and Mi Video. You also get to see ads inside
various pre-loaded apps, even with the latest update — MIUI 10.
·
Fortunately, there is a way to disable ads on Xiaomi smartphones
running MIUI 10, such as Redmi Note 7 or Redmi Note 7 Pro.
Follow the long list of steps below to remove ads from MIUI 10 on
your Xiaomi smartphone. If your phone is running MIUI 9, follow these
steps instead.
·
If you are not sure what version of MIUI your phone is running,
you will find that information under Settings > About
Phone. Now check what's next to MIUI version.

MIUI 10

How to disable msa and Personalized ad
recommendations
·
The first step is to disable msa. Xiaomi has tried hard to ensure
that you don't disable this service. In MIUI 9, disabling msa used to take
two or three attempts, and you didn't have to wait 10 seconds each time for
the Revoke button — all that seems to have changed.
·
Make sure your Xiaomi phone running MIUI 10 is connected to the
Internet. You can't revoke this permission offline.
·
Settings > Additional
Settings > Authorization & revocation > and
set msa to Off.
·
Now you'll have to wait for 10 seconds before you can tap Revoke.
·
Once you tap that, you will see a message that reads: “Couldn't
revoke authorization”.
·
You will see this error at least three to five times before this
permission is revoked. Keep trying until you succeed.
·
After this, go to Settings > Additional
Settings > Privacy > Ad services Personalized
ad recommendations > and set it to Off.
