I always said that MIUI 9 is one of the best Android ROMs on the market. I understand that it is not for everyone, but those who give the opportunity surely enjoy it. In other words, a part of MIUI was broken in the past and always protruded like a painful thumb. If you are an avid MIUI user, you need to know what I'm talking about, but if you do not already understand, I'm talking about the shade. MIUI's adoption of Android's Notification Shade has always been primitive to me. I was not bundled with notifications from the same app, and I did not like the fact that there was no easy way to reply inline from an alert.
Thankfully, MIUI 9 handles all problems. MIUI 9 has a notification bundle feature, which basically bundles all notifications for the same app. This means that if you receive multiple messages from WhatsApp or another messaging app, you will not receive a separate notification for each message. MIUI 9 also provides fast response. This works similarly to the quick reply feature of stock Android. That means you can swipe your reminder and reply right there.
MIUI 9 also introduces several notification styles that change the notification style based on the notification type. In the figure above, you can see how MIUI 9 handles different types of notifications. MIUI 9 provides a download link inside the notification in the first example. This means that users do not need to open the app to download the image. The second and third notifications show how the system handles bundles and single notifications. All messages from WhatsApp are bundled together, and the notification window has a quick reply option.
We are pleased that Xiaomi has finally decided to fix MIUI's notification shade with the MIUI 9 update. In MIUI 9, Xiaomi solved the only major problem I had with the MIUI ROM. Anyone using MIUI will love this update and MIUI.
