Xiaomi: Schedule Power On/Off Automatically

If you keep forgetting to switch your Xiaomi phone off at night or want it ready and running before you even reach for it in the morning, pressing the power button every time gets old fast. MIUI includes a built-in scheduler that turns the device on and off at fixed times you define, with support for daily repetition or custom days. Once set up, the phone handles the switching on its own, without any manual input.

Schedule Power On/Off auf Xiaomi

Manually turning a phone on or off every day is easy to forget, especially overnight. MIUI addresses this with a scheduler that stores separate times for powering the device on and off, each with its own repetition setting.

Once configured, the phone switches state on its own at the times you picked, without needing the power button. This is useful if you want the device off during sleep to save battery and reduce notifications, but ready again automatically before you wake up.

Where to find it

Open SettingsBattery & performanceBatterySchedule power on/off. From there, enable or disable Power on time and set the time plus repetition, then do the same for Power off time. Confirm with Save.

You can enable only one of the two options if you only need automatic power on or only automatic power off. The repetition setting lets you choose daily or specific days, so the schedule can match a weekday-only routine.

Keep in mind that a scheduled power off closes the system completely, similar to a manual shutdown. If you rely on overnight notifications or alarms through the phone itself, disable the schedule on days you need the device to stay reachable.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Scheduled power off works like a manual shutdown through Battery & performance. All apps close and the phone restarts fully at the next scheduled power on time.
