MIUI was based on the Android Open Source Project, and served as the basis for other OS deviations by Xiaomi: MIUI for Poco, MIUI Pad, MIUI Watch, and MIUI TV (PatchWall).[https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-watch-miui-google-wearos/ Xiaomi Mi Watch is unapologetically inspired by the Apple Watch, but costs only $185]

There are different versions for each Xiaomi phone model, and each version has regional variants dependent on where the phone is sold, including China, Europe, Indonesia, India, Japan, Pakistan, Russia, Taiwan and Turkey. Xiaomi have also released a few devices running Google's Android One instead of MIUI. Xiaomi devices usually get three Android version updates, but get MIUI updates for four years (less for budget models).{{citation |url=https://www.engadget.com/2011/08/16/xiaomi-m1-with-miui-os-a-310-phone-with-1-5ghz-dual-core-soc-a/ |title=Xiaomi Phone with MIUI OS: a $310 Android with 1.5 GHz dual-core SoC and other surprises |publisher=Engadget |date=16 August 2011 |access-date=17 September 2011 |archive-date=23 September 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110923184903/http://www.engadget.com/2011/08/16/xiaomi-m1-with-miui-os-a-310-phone-with-1-5ghz-dual-core-soc-a |url-status=live }}

The first MIUI ROM, released in 2010, was based on Android 2.2.x Froyo and was initially developed in China by Xiaomi in its first year of operation.{{citation |author=Jason Lim |url=http://technode.com/2011/04/14/rumour-lei-jun%E2%80%99s-miui-android-rom-teams-up-with-guess-who/ |title=MIUI, Lei Jun |date=14 April 2011 |publisher=TechNode |access-date=17 January 2012 |archive-date=2 April 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190402131651/https://technode.com/2011/04/14/rumour-lei-jun%E2%80%99s-miui-android-rom-teams-up-with-guess-who/ |url-status=live }} Xiaomi added a number of apps to the basic framework, including Notes, Backup, Music, and Gallery apps.{{cite web|url=https://www.mi.com/global/miui|url-status=live|title=MIUI Official English Site|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140409074533/http://en.miui.com/features.php |archive-date=9 April 2014 |df=dmy-all}} Live version for current MIUI; archived version for MiUI 5.

An organisation named Xiaomi Europe, using the domain xiaomi.eu and working officially with Xiaomi despite not being affiliated with the Chinese company,{{cite web | title=Home page, with 'About us' and forum list|publisher=Xiaomi European Community| url=https://xiaomi.eu/community/ | access-date=22 June 2023|archive-date=27 April 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210427151154/https://xiaomi.eu/community/ |url-status=live}} Updated frequently. was set up in 2010 as a community for English-language Xiaomi users with phones running MIUI associated with an Android version. The website issues its own stable and weekly versions of Xiaomi MIUI ROMs based on the stable, and on the weekly beta versions of the Chinese ROM. Installing the xiaomi.eu ROM, however, voids the warranty on Xiaomi phones; according to the xiaomi.eu leader, the official ROM must be flashed and the bootloader locked before returning a device for warranty repair.{{Cite web |title=Answer to: Do I have warranty after flashing xiaomi.eu? |author=ingbrzy, Xiaomi.eu ROM leader |website=Xiaomi European Community |date=24 January 2021 |url=https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/do-i-have-warranty-after-flashing-xiaomi-eu.59636/#post-587549|archive-date=28 April 2021 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210428180102/https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/do-i-have-warranty-after-flashing-xiaomi-eu.59636/#post-587549 |url-status=live }}

Google Play services

Google has had disagreements with the Chinese government, and the Great Firewall currently blocks access to all Google services. Since Xiaomi has expanded its operations outside China, MIUI releases for Android devices outside mainland China have Google Play Services and Google Apps such as Gmail, GMaps, YouTube and Google Play pre-installed and functioning as on any other Android device. MIUI global versions are certified by Google, as are all MIUI devices, which ship with Google Play Services since MIUI 12.5.{{Cite web|url=https://www.android.com/intl/en_in/certified/partners/|title=Android – Certified - Partners|website=Android|language=en|access-date=2020-01-31|archive-date=24 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200624050031/https://www.android.com/intl/en_in/certified/partners/|url-status=live}}

Android

Although MIUI is built on the Android platform, the default user interface of its earlier iterations resembled iOS due to the absence of the application tray,{{Cite news|url=https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/buying-advice/google-android/best-custom-android-uis-2017-custom-ui-vs-android-3651746/|title=What's the difference between TouchWiz, MIUI, EMUI, OxygenOS, LG UX and standard Android?|last=Black|first=Marie|work=Tech Advisor|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-GB|archive-date=2 June 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200602032227/https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/buying-advice/google-android/best-custom-android-uis-2017-custom-ui-vs-android-3651746/|url-status=live}} with a grid of icons arrayed in the home panels. Other iOS similarities include the app icons being in a uniform shape, the dialer and in-call interface, the organization of the Settings app, and the visual appearance of toggles in the UI. This prompted some observers to cite how the devices running on MIUI could appeal to iOS users wanting to switch to the Android platform. By 2018, MIUI was increasingly shifting towards a design aesthetic more similar to stock Android. For instance, several elements in builds of MIUI 10 resemble Android Pie features, such as the multitasking menu and gesture controls.{{Cite news|url=https://www.androidheadlines.com/2018/05/miui-10-to-offer-updated-design-its-user-interface-leaks.html|title=MIUI 10 To Offer Updated Design, Its User Interface Leaks {{!}} Androidheadlines.com|date=2018-05-29|work=AndroidHeadlines.com {{!}}|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US|archive-date=4 August 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200804012334/https://www.androidheadlines.com/2018/05/miui-10-to-offer-updated-design-its-user-interface-leaks.html|url-status=live}} This change was first seen in MIUI 9 (ver. 8.5.11) that shipped with Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S.{{Cite news|url=https://www.xda-developers.com/miui-9-xiaomi-mi-mix-2s-redmi-note-5-pro-redesigned-ui/|title=Latest MIUI 9 build for the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 brings Android P-style UI changes|date=2018-05-11|work=xda-developers|access-date=2018-07-31|language=en-US|archive-date=4 August 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200804020331/https://www.xda-developers.com/miui-9-xiaomi-mi-mix-2s-redmi-note-5-pro-redesigned-ui/|url-status=live}}

Another difference from Android is MIUI's support for themes and custom fonts. Users can download theme packs and fonts, which can change the user interface of the device when installed from the Mi Themes Store. It also allows more advanced users to tweak the hard-coded firmware of the handsets.{{Cite book|title=Strategy and Communication for Innovation: Integrative Perspectives on Innovation in the Digital Economy|last1=Pfeffermann|first1=Nicole|last2=Gould|first2=Julie|publisher=Springer|year=2017|isbn=9783319495408|location=Cham, Switzerland|pages=30}}

In order to raise funds for the company, MIUI has its own online services from Xiaomi, including cloud services, paid themes and games. Payments are transacted using the Mi Credit digital currency.{{cite web|title=删除谷歌,内置杀毒,MIUI终于突破底线|url=http://www.miui.com/thread-534432-1-1.html|access-date=9 April 2013|archive-date=2 April 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190402075138/http://www.miui.com/thread-534432-1-1.html|url-status=live}}

After the government of India banned over 100 Chinese apps and services in 2020 due to national security and privacy concerns, including some made by Xiaomi, the company developed a separate MIUI version without them for India.{{cite web |last1=Wright |first1=Arol |title=Xiaomi is rebuilding MIUI for India without any of its banned apps |url=https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-rebuilding-miui-for-india-without-banned-apps/ |website=xda-developers |date=8 August 2020 |access-date=8 August 2020 |archive-date=8 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200808214504/https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-rebuilding-miui-for-india-without-banned-apps/ |url-status=live }}{{cite web |title=Xiaomi India working on new MIUI version without banned Chinese apps |url=https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/08/07/xiaomi-india-working-on-new-miui-version-without-banned-chinese-apps/ |website=Android Police |date=7 August 2020 |access-date=8 August 2020 |archive-date=29 August 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200829222636/https://www.androidpolice.com/2020/08/07/xiaomi-india-working-on-new-miui-version-without-banned-chinese-apps/ |url-status=live }}
