In addition, there is a new widget ecosystem with lots of items to make the device home screen more informative. Apps can be opened as floating windows from the sidebar while there’s new Ambient sound recognition in Mi Ditto. Aside from the new additions, there have been multiple optimizations and bug fixes.
