There is a problem with notch mobiles in Xiaomi and it is that, due to that notch that they carry permanently, the notification icons disappear without a trace, so the user has no idea of the notifications they receive until lower the curtain. This is, without a doubt, the most serious problem suffered by terminals such as the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 or the Xiaomi Mi 9T. But he's not the only one. The Xiaomi user sees them and wants them, when he debuts in this layer, to customize them to his liking. That is why we are going to explain how to fix and configure all Xiaomi notifications in the MIUI layer 10 and 11 well.
But first, we leave you with an application that fixes the MIUI notifications error on Xiaomi mobiles with notch. Its name is Notch Notifications for MIUI and it is very easy to configure. When opening it, we have to give it the requested permissions and, then, the notifications that arrive will appear fixed in the image, and we can modify the size to our liking. It may not be the prettiest thing we have seen but it is an effective solution if you cannot live without having the notifications of the notifications.
Remember that this problem only has Xiaomi mobiles with notch, the rest will continue to receive notifications as always. But when we receive the mobile for the first time and configure it, we must pay special attention to the notifications section. For example, if we do not activate it in the settings, the application icons will not reach the curtain. Do you want to correctly configure notifications in MIUI 10 and 11? Well, do not lose detail.
The first thing we are going to do is enter the notifications section of the settings. The variation between MIUI 10 and MIUI 11, in this case, is still a purely aesthetic level so the tutorial can be used for both, with minimal differences. Find the 'Notifications' section or use the settings search box.
In this screen we are going to see, graphically, the three ways that MIUI has to notify you: on the lock screen, floating applications and the notification icon. If you click on each of the sections, you can choose, one by one, which application you want to notify you in which specific section. For example, you may want floating WhatsApp apps but not on the lock screen. It is worth taking a look at these three sections so that you can configure what you want to be shown and what not. Thus, in addition, you will gain productivity by not having so many distractions.
In the 'Notification bar' section (this for MIUI 11 users) we can activate Android or MIUI type notifications. The basic difference is that MIUI notifications will be better adapted to our layer, with the icon of each notification next to it instead of above and smaller.
If you have MIUI 10 you should, now, search for 'Status bar' in the search box of the settings. In MIUI 11 we have the bar configuration on the 'Notification Bar' screen, under 'Do you need other settings?'. Within this screen we must make sure to activate the switch 'Show notification icons'. If we do not turn on this switch, we will receive notifications but not icons. In this screen we can also configure other elements such as the battery indicator or edit the name of our operator.
