  • My older redmi has this issue where once a accessibility service was killed, it had to be disabled and enabled with the 10s mandatory wait because xiaomi. Miui also disables a bunch of APIs like 3rd party apps cannot change the wallpaper or the running services option present in most ROMs. This isn’t to ignore the aggressive app killing behavior of miui. Overall, my experience wasn’t great. Oneui is a much better and more stable experience, IMO.









  • Native apps are apps written in the native language of the platform of choice. It would be Java for Android and swift for IOS. Native apps can request lower level access to your system than a webapp.

    Now, a webapp is a basically a website which can run like a native app with similar features and is full screen unlike a website. The language is javascript for the front-end and the backend(server) handles some communication. So, webapps can behave and act like native apps but they are not native and won’t have the same lower level access to your system. Think access to storage, accessibility services, settings, etc. Webapps can also be slower compared to native apps which is prominent in non-flagship smartphones.
