MIUI 12 hides one of the best functions of the personalization layer: simultaneous and separate volume control. On Android, if we play, for example, content on Spotify and open a video game, everything will have a maximum volume, regulated by the volume of the system itself.
In MIUI 12 we can make our Xiaomi have a specific volume value for each application while simultaneously playing audio. So, without going any further, you can play PUGB Mobile or your favorite game while playing Spotify music at much lower volume so that it does not interfere with the game, let’s see how it is done.
Separate audio control in MIUI 12
By default it is disabled, but this is one of the best features of MIUI 12. Enabling a simple setting we can control the volume of apps that play audio. For example, the volume of notifications on the one hand, music on the other hand and a game on the other.
In order to activate this function, we need to be updated with the latest version and complete the steps detailed below:
- Open your Xiaomi settings
- Go to ‘sound and vibration’
- Click on ‘sound assistant’
- Activate the function ‘Adjust multimedia sound in various applications’

When in a hurry, a panel will be activated with the volume controls of all apps that play sound. This way you can control system notifications, music, games and more from one place and simultaneously
