Features
This section of the article will explain you all of the MIUI Gallery features seperately with their details.
Settings
We will first go through the settings and their meanings, and so here they are listed below.
Sync with the cloud
As the name kinda explains, this is used so that MIUI Gallery will sync the photos that you have with your Mi Account to the cloud.
Select best photo
Again as the name says, when this is on, MIUI Gallery will pick the best photos and mark them for you, so you can compare it with others and delete them if they are not needed.
Memories
This is a feature like how Google Photos handle it, but shows them in a different way. It picks your old photos from your gallery, and then shows it if the device is in charger if there’s enough photos.
Creativity
This feature adds more options while editing a photo, which allows the user to customize the picture more.
Convert HEIF before sending
If a picture is captured with “HEIF” file extension by the camera, it might not get properly recognized by the other apps and they might even straight up deny the picture when you choose it. When you turn this option on, MIUI Gallery will turn the file extension from HEIF to JPEG before sending and sharing the picture to anywhere.
And now that’s done, we can start counting other features than just the one in settings.
Editing features
