Xiaomi launches Poco Launcher 2.0 with improved design

When Xiaomi introduced the Pocophone F1, it came with its own UI, called Poco Launcher. Eventually, the Chinese maker put it on Google Play for everyone to use, and now the beloved interface comes with a 2.0 version.

The changes are mostly about polishing the design and making the experience smoother with the app drawer. Now it can have a semi-transparent background, so you can see your wallpaper even under the white/black/gray layer. The transparency is customizable - that way you can have your precious main image and Dark Mode at the same time.

Poco Launcher is loved by many because you can customize pretty much everything. You can add applications in groups like Entertainment and Social, but with the Poco Launcher 2.0, some of them can be deleted, so you can create your own sections.

Some speculated that there’s no need for Poco Launcher 2.0 if there is no Poco F2 and that’s exactly the phone in the video, but we are pretty sure this is actually the Xiaomi Mi Mix 3. Also, there’s nothing wrong for the MIUI team to update a piece of software, so users can enjoy it fully.
