How to update your Xiaomi device — step by step

Software updates arrive over the air and are free. Here is exactly where to find them on a Xiaomi device — and what it means if none appears.

The steps

  1. Connect to Wi-Fi and plug the device in (or keep at least 50% battery).
  2. Open the update screen:
    Settings → About phone → HyperOS / MIUI version (tap it) → Check for updates
  3. Download the update, then install it. The device restarts once; your apps and data stay in place.

On some Xiaomi models the entry is Settings → System update. Redmi and POCO phones use the same menus.

No update available?

Two possibilities: your device is already up to date — or it has reached its end of support and will never receive updates again. Check your exact model:
