Original launcher still smoother compare to 3rd party one. For me poco launcher is light years smoother than nova. Now days whi will use that 3rd party launcher..it was long years back when company did not mature enough. Nowdays all big mobile company have their own ui..and most users use them. Nova is forgoten.

I have Poco F2 pro for a year now. Nice mobile , good pics battery , last long pretty fast and for the price overall a good choice. BUT I will never buy a Xiaomi again. Middle price mobile and don't support with Android 13 2 years after? Still cost 500€ and no support. Sorry Xiaomi you lost a loyal customer (Poco was the 6th Xiaomi in the family)

But once you learn the basics, there's just no going back. Nova launcher is light years ahead from the clunky and limited Poco launcher in ALL aspects. Xiaomi ruined it and all other third party launchers by making gesture based navigation dysfunctional in all 3rd party launchers. The motive is simple: using the native Poco launcher, Xiaomi can closely monitor which apps users spend more time on and how users navigate and use their Xiaomi phones. That way, they can track their users and serve them with more appropriate ads since many of its native apps have obtrusive ads.

It's the same bugs with night mode dysfunction, gesture navigation failure with third party launchers, failure to set many third party apps as default over your ad-infested spying native apps, etc., with almost all bugs from MIUI 12.x.x.x (Android 11) carried over to MIUI 13 (Android 12) with absolutely no improvement. And worse, new bugs are introduced like not being able to set each app anymore individually to night/dark mode, and while it's already Android 12, many Android 12 features are unavailable or dysfunctional. You don't have control over the color theme like you do with other Android phones on Android 12. MIUI 13 just chooses whatever color theme it wants based on your wallpaper with no option to manually override the bad color choices like you normally do in other phones on Android 12 (Android One, Pixel, Samsung phones, etc.) So long Xiaomi. Your MIUI 12 and 13 are an absolute horrendous mess. I'm avoiding your phones forever.

Xiaomi must have gotten tired of my complaints with the failed MIUI 12.x.x.x - Android 11 based updates. I've yet to try it. Let's hope Xiaomi solves all the bugs with this update (at least the major ones).

Mo... moreActually, you should try Nova launcher - Only when you've used ot and mastered the customizations will you realize just how poor Xiaomi's super limited Poco launcher is. Even Google's own Pixel launcher pales in comparison. Try downloading it and you'll realize just how much you are missing by sticking with Xiaomi's super limited and super inefficient Poco launcher. At least Google's Pixel and Android One phones, as well as Samsung's phones doesn't intentionally sabotage third-party launchers like Nova launcher the way Xiaomi does so it can spy on you using its own Poco launcher.

You can also change the notification sound and vibration in settings - sound and vibration. Also check if 'do not disturb' has been inadvertently set 'on'.
If all else fails, factory reset your phone. You need to get used to 'factory reset' because some Xiaomi MIUI update bugs can only be corrected by it. That's how bad Xiaomi's software update support is. Still no Android 12 for this pricey $577 phone and its security update is still January 2022. Totally unacceptable for a phone at this price level. Even Samsung's cheap midrange A series phones have much better software update support with much fewer bugs. This is my absolutely last Xiaomi phone after having been a long time loyal Xiaomi fan. Xiaomi deserves to be deserted by its customers. It can be appealing at first look, given the lower price for the hardware specs offered, but the MIUI software is absolutely buggy and horrendous and very few and far in between, not to mention always late by at least several months. And this specific model (and many others) also had the battery/charging defect.
You'll are very lucky if you still haven't experienced the charging problem due to a factory defect which Xiaomi never acknowledged and never did a recall.

So you're saying it's the custom launcher that's the problem and not Xiaomi's ultra buggy, beta grade software MIUI?
