Xiaomi updates its browser privacy settings for the second time; this time with better clarification

Smartphone maker Xiaomi has just rolled out a second update for its Mi and Mint web browsers. This update comes weeks after initial reports highlighted its browser data collection policies. Taking a look back, the first update introduced a new toggle to highlight its data collection policy. However the words used to clarify the details caused further confusion among the users. The second update introduces better language to remove any confusion on what the toggles do. These changes will ensure that users know what the new toggles mean. Let’s check out the new update and changes in the Xiaomi web browsers here.

Xiaomi issues a second update to its web browsers; details

According to a new report from Android Authority, the previous update added a toggle called “Enhanced Incognito Mode”. This toggle also added, “Aggregated data stats won’t be uploaded when incognito mode is on”. This indicates that the company will not collect data when the “Incognito mode” is turned on. Flipping the toggle on, we saw, “Improve your user experience by uploading aggregated data stats when incognito mode is on”. The report also noted that Xiaomi clarified that the clarification outlined the current state of the toggle. This definition did not change the status of one particular statement. Multiple other publications highlighted the same confusion after the update.

Now, the new text reads, “Turn on to share usage stats with us when incognito mode is on”. Beyond this, the text does not change depending on the toggle state of the option.
