Xiaomi has been continuously rolling out MIUI 12 beta builds to eligible devices ever since the company officially unveiled the latest version of its Android skin in late April. With every new build, the firm has been introducing new features like heart rate monitoring using phone’s camera and LED flash, device frame screenshots, OCR in Gallery app, long exposure shots, new sky replacement filter, paper reading mode, and more. Now, the smartphone maker has updated the MIUI Notes app with support for sketches.
Just like any other major Android skin, MIUI also comes with a bunch of first-party apps. One of them is MIUI Notes. As the name suggests, users can use this app to take quick notes and can even record audio notes.
With the latest closed beta version, which is currently being rolled out in China (via ITHome), users can now even sketch in the app. It is interesting to see Xiaomi adding support for sketch since none of its devices comes with a stylus. Maybe the company is preparing a smartphone or tablet with digitizer but that’s just a speculation from our end.
Anyway, users can sketch in MIUI Notes with their fingers or standard stylus accessory available in the market. But that’s not an ideal experience, however, it’s better than nothing.
That said, Xiaomi is not the first Chinese smartphone maker to introduce this feature as OPPO ColorOS and Meizu Flyme already offer this option.
