In the daily life of Xiaomi phones, as well as in others, it is likely that we run into errors that we can ignore, but that in the long run can be a mistake to hate. This is what is happening to many users of different Xiaomi and Redmi models, which appears in both MIUI 11 and MIUI 12 users, where notifications stay fixed at the top even after reading them.
We ourselves have been able to verify this failure, which for one reason or another causes our Xiaomi mobile to leave a fixed notification without having changed anything. This is repeated in social media and system applications and now it has not been released as a generalized failure or reported by users in the forums, as it does on other occasions.
Ways to remove fixed notifications on Xiaomi
Once we come across this problem, we have several solutions trying to fix it. The fastest and easiest thing would be to turn off the mobile or restart it, but nevertheless this is too slow and it takes away valuable time that we should not lose.
We recommend that when the icon of a notification remains fixed in Xiaomi, you choose to try the following solutions one by one, which can help you fix it on time and / or also in a durable way.
Clean up application multitasking
Another quick and effective solution that will not take effect immediately is to simply touch the multitasking button of the Xiaomi mobile or slide your finger from the top, if we use the gestures. Here we will have access to an “X” with which we can clean all the open apps , among which will be the one that the notification has set us.
Once it is completely cleaned, a message will appear with all the RAM released and we can see that now the small notification icon has disappeared.
Check that we have the latest update
One aspect that we must never overlook is to check that we have the latest version of the system. By this we mean both the applications, from the Google Play Store itself, but especially the system.
To update our Xiaomi or Redmi mobile to the latest version , we just have to enter Settings> About the phone and click on the MIUI version. In a few seconds the search will be carried out in case of news, we invite you to apply it so that this is finally solved.
Change notification style in Xiaomi
There are times when the problem is not fixed with the above options or even repeats itself constantly. Given this, the only thing left to do is the solution that has worked best for us, which is to change the style of notifications.
This can be done from Settings> Notifications> Notification bar. Here we have two different styles, which are MIUI or Android. Regardless of the one you have selected, we invite you to change it for the other option. In some models it works better with one or the other, without there being an apparent reason for this to happen and becoming the best solution without repeating it.
