MIUI 12 changes its multitasking: now in landscape format

Manufacturers using Android as their operating system have a great advantage given the huge compatibility with millions of applications. In Spain the market share of this system compared to others is overwhelming.

However, the fact that hundreds of companies use the same software forces them to look for ways to differentiate themselves. One of them is to create a UI or graphical interface on Android, which the most famous brands do.

Huawei has EMUI, OPPO has Color OS, Samsung has One UI, and Xiaomi has MIUI. The latter, the Xiaomi layer, is one of those that most modifies the system, which is clearly seen in the management of its multitasking.

MIUI 12 allows you to configure multitasking

In most levels, multitasking appears in the same way it appears in Android Stock, which is on cards aligned left to right in a horizontal carousel.

However, in MIUI they appear as cards in two columns with vertical scrolling movement. This seems to change in one of the new MIUI 12 updates, which will allow you to choose between both options.

To do this, we need to go to the settings on the main screen and select the option to organize items in the recent tab. There we can choose between the classic MIUI 12 look or the classic Android stock.

Regardless of which one we choose, we can continue blocking an app in the background, by entering its settings or putting it in multi-window by simply pressing and holding the tab that shows it.

This novelty is already available in the trial version of the MIUI launcher v4.21.0.2425-10261728 that you can test with this APK, even if there is no guarantee that it will work on all Xiaomi with MIUI 12. For this we will have to wait for it to be. implement in a stable version of the interface.
