Why are there ads on Redmi/Xiaomi devices?

Back in 2019, the Chinese tech giant said it truly believed that displaying ads was not an unfair practice. The system ads on MIUI attest to it. Basically, the ads in MIUI 12 are not going anywhere. But in this article, I will show you how to disable ads from Mi phone manually.

How to turn off ads in Redmi/Xiaomi phones [MIUI 11/MIUI 12]

Although Xiaomi does not provide a standard procedure for turning off ads, there are a series of steps that users can follow to get rid of Xiaomi’s advertising “suggestions”.

Note that the steps below do not require the use of the Mi Unlock tool or device root. It’s one way to do things but is relatively more tedious and can introduce a host of problems.

disable ads by revoking authorization for the MSA app

Revocation of authorization for MSA (MIUI system advertising) is fundamental in disabling advertising on MIUI devices. Since this is a system app, you won’t find it on the home screen.

Go to Settings > Password and Security > Authorization and Withdrawal.
Scroll down and disable the button next to the “msa” option. Xiaomi won’t let you do it the first time, so keep revoking authorization until you do.

By disabling MSA, Xiaomi will not have the right to show MIUI system ads on default apps like Browser, Security, etc. Mi fans have reported that just one step is not enough to remove ads on MIUI devices.

Note: For whatever reason, disabling MSA in Xiaomi’s system settings is not enough to disable ads in some Mi apps. Therefore, you need to turn them off manually. You can learn how to manually disable ads from the Mi app below.
