Xiaomi introduces the newest software-based feature named “Pure mode” with MIUI 13 to protect your device from junk files. Back in September 2021, the company started to recruit the beta tester for its “Pure Mode” found on the Chinese build of MIUI. Xiaomi has silently started releasing the Pure Mode to their smartphones in China.
What is “Pure Mode” in MIUI?
Pure mode is essentially a software-based feature that helps you to secure your smartphones from junk files, viruses, and malware. The pure mode will scan all the files such as folders, APKs, applications on your Xiaomi models and can inform you as soon found any kind of junk file or malware. The mode is quite similar to what we get in on Chinese ColorOS devices from Oppo, Realme, and OnePlus named “Security Check”.
However, there is one major difference between both of them is, Security Check performs the scan after your install an app, while Pure mode in MIUI first scans the apk files and then allows the user to install the application.
If it is found any kind of junk, viruses, or malware, it will warn you. Now, it is up to users whether he wants to download the App and other files or not.
The “Pure Mode” is divided into four levels of security checks which are given below.
