Xiaomi: Turn Camera Live Tips On or Off

If your Xiaomi camera keeps popping up messages about a dirty lens or telling you to hold the phone level, the Live tips feature is running in the background. These prompts are useful for beginners but can get in the way during fast shooting, and not everyone wants every single tip active.

Turn On/Off Camera Live Tips auf Xiaomi

Xiaomi camera apps include a feature called Live tips. It watches conditions while you shoot and shows short on-screen messages, for example a warning that the lens looks dirty or a hint that the phone is not held parallel to the ground.

These prompts come from the camera app itself, not from MIUI system settings, so they only appear while the Camera app is open. Each tip can be switched on or off separately, which means you can keep the leveling hint active while disabling the dirty lens warning, or turn the whole feature off.

Where to find Live tips

Open the path below inside the Camera app: Tap on CameraOpen the MenuTap on SettingsTap on Live tipsTurn On/Off the desired feature.

Every listed tip has its own switch. Toggle the ones you no longer want to see, and leave the rest untouched if they still help your shooting workflow.

If tips still appear after switching them off, close and reopen the Camera app so the setting applies. Live tips only affect on-screen prompts and do not change photo or video quality.
