Xiaomi testing Focus Mode on MIUI to help you focus

Xiaomi is testing a new feature called Focus Mode on the MIUI that can help people to focus.

The name of the feature is “Focus Mode” , which effectively turns your smartphone into a brick during which the company hope you can really focus on what your are doing.

Once “Focus Mode” on MIUI is enabled, the user can only make emergency calls, take photos and answer phone calls.

You can choose from 20 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, 60 minutes and 90 minutes for the “Focus Mode” to be on. But once you have chosen one, there is no regret button.

Xiaomi also allow to check the statics of your use of this feature. And it also supports dark mode.

Focus Mode is a toggle that blocks access to selected apps to eliminate distractions, which basically a refined version of Do Not Disturb.

It’s a mode that blocks notifications from specific apps while active, clearing away any open notifications from those apps, and stopping any further notifications from showing up while the mode is active.

In addition, the offending apps will also be blocked during Focus Mode, stopping you from “accidentally” opening them when you should be doing something else.

It was unveiled at Google I/O earlier this year, although Android 10 has rolled out, Focus Mode isn’t available quite yet.

Google is seemingly still putting the final touches to its distraction-cutting tool, and as such, it’s only available in the beta build of the Digital Wellbeing app.

With Focus Mode, you can temporarily stop yourself from using certain apps on your phone.

Google is making it optional for OEM solutions to add features like website timers and Focus Mode.
