How to turn on the autoclicker on Android Xiaomi: 3 working ways (2026)

An automatic clicker on Xiaomi can make routine tasks much easier, from in-game pharmacing to interface testing. However, standard firmware MIUI does not include this feature out of the box โ€” it needs to be activated through hidden settings, third-party utilities or system modifications. In this guide, we will discuss all current methods, including solutions without and with ROOT- right, and also explain how to circumvent the limitations of MIUI automation.

It is important to understand that using autoclickers in some applications (e.g. online games) may violate service rules and lead to account locking. We do not recommend using these methods in competitive modes - only for personal tasks or testing. Also note that on devices with MIUI 14+, some methods may require additional permissions due to the tightening of Xiaomi's security policy.

If youโ€™re a beginner, start with the first method (the built-in MIUI tools). Experienced users will find the ADB sections and advanced-featured apps useful. For owners of POCO and Redmi devices based on Android 13/14, they have added separate recommendations โ€” these models often have unique limitations.

1. Built-in autoclicker in MIUI: Hidden opportunities

Few people know, but MIUIโ€™s firmware contains basic automatic click functionality that can be activated through customization options, which works on most Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices without the need to install additional programs.

To include it:

  1. Open Settings โ†’ Special features โ†’ Improved features.
  2. Scroll down and find Auto Click (on some versions Autoclick or Repeated Actions).
  3. Activate the switch and adjust the interval between clicks (0.1 to 5 seconds).
  4. Run the function through the notification bar or gesture (configurable in the same menu).

Limitations of this method:

  • ๐Ÿ”˜ Works only with physical clicks (does not mimic touch taps in games).
  • ๐Ÿ”˜ No way to specify coordinates or complex scenarios.
  • ๐Ÿ”˜ On MIUI 14 may require confirmation via ADB (see Section 3).

If the Auto Press item is missing, upgrade to the latest version of the firmware or check the region of the device (some features are hidden in global assemblies).

2.Autocliker apps: TOP-3 for Xiaomi without ROOT

If built-in tools aren't enough, you can use third-party utilities, and we tested dozens of apps and selected the three most stable for Xiaomi devices:

AnnexSupport for MIUIFunctionsLimitations
Auto Clicker - Automatic Tap12โ€“14Click recording, timer, multipointAdvertising requires permission to overlay
Tap, Automate13+Scenarios, conditional logic, work in the backgroundA complex interface for beginners
Octopus (Game Assistant)14 (beta)Optimized for gaming, macrosRequires registration, paid functions

Instructions for setting up (for example, Auto Clicker):

  1. Download the app from Google Play (or APKMirror if it is blocked in your area).
  2. Run and grant permission to Overlay over other applications (in Settings โ†’ Applications โ†’ Special Access).
  3. Press "+" to create a new script, select the click type (single/double/hold).
  4. Set the coordinates (use the magnifying glass in the app) and the interval.
  5. Launch the autoclicker with the PLAY button โ€“ the icon will appear in the notification panel.

Important for MIUI 14: Some applications (such as Octopus) may not work without additional ADB settings. If the clicker doesnโ€™t respond after running, follow the command:

adb shell pm grant com.octopus.touchs android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

3.Autoclikator via ADB: circumventing MIUI restrictions

Starting with the MIUI 12, Xiaomi tightened its control over automation by blocking some auto-clicker features. This can be circumvented by using ADB- commands, which give applications extended rights. This method does not require a ROOT, but requires a computer and a USB- cache.

Step-by-step:

  1. Turn on USB Debugging on your phone: Go to Settings โ†’ About Phone โ†’ MIUI version and press 7 times to activate Developer Mode. Return to Settings โ†’ Additional โ†’ For Developers and enable USB Debugging.

Connect the phone to the PC, confirm the trusted device.

Command line.

Terminal

adb devices

Make sure your Xiaomi is listed.

adb shell pm grant PAKET APPLATIONS android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

For example, for Auto Clicker:

adb shell pm grant com.ramdroid.autoclicker android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS

After that, the autoclicker will have access to low-level system functions and will be able to work even in games with protection (for example, Free Fire or PUBG Mobile).

Risks of use ADB-team
Some applications (e.g. banking) can block devices with active debugging over USB. Xiaomi can reset these permissions after updating MIUI - the procedure will have to be repeated. Do not use commands from unverified sources - this can disrupt the system.

4. Autoclicker with ROOT-rights: maximum opportunities

If your Xiaomi has an unlocked bootloader and ROOT- right (for example, through Magisk), you get access to advanced tools like Tasker or MacroDroid. These applications allow you to create complex scenarios with conditional logic, delays, and even reaction to events in the system.

Example of settings in Tasker:

  1. Install Tasker and AutoInput plugin (requires ROOT).
  2. Create a new task (Task โ†’ New).
  3. Add the action Plugin โ†’ AutoInput โ†’ Action.
  4. Select the Tap action type and specify the coordinates (e.g. X:500 Y:1000).
  5. Set up a repeat via Wait (e.g., 1 second).
  6. Add a cycle (For) to repeat it repeatedly.

The advantages of ROOT- solutions:

  • ๐Ÿ”ง Works in any application, including secure games.
  • ๐Ÿ”ง Support for gestures, swipes and complex scenarios.
  • ๐Ÿ”ง There are no time limits (unlike ADB).

  • โš ๏ธ Soft-brick risk in case of incorrect firmware.
  • โš ๏ธ Some banking applications (e.g., SberBank Online) refuse to work on rooted devices.

5. Features for POCO and Redmi on Android 13/14

POCO and Redmi devices based on Android 13/14 have additional restrictions due to the policies of Google and Xiaomi. For example, on the POCO F5 or Redmi Note 12, standard auto-clickers may not work without the following actions:

Solution 1: Disabling MIUI Optimization

This feature interferes with the automatic clickers, to deactivate it:

  1. Enable Developer Mode (as in Section 3).
  2. Go to For Developers โ†’ Disable MIUI Optimization.
  3. Reset the device.

Decision 2: Permission for background activity

On Android 14, apps are not allowed to run in the background without explicit permission:

  1. Open Settings โ†’ Applications โ†’ Application Management.
  2. Select your autoclicker (such as Auto Clicker).
  3. Activate options: ๐Ÿ”„ Auto Run ๐Ÿ”‹ Without battery limitations ๐Ÿ“ฑ Show over other applications

๐Ÿ’ก

On the POCO X5 Pro and Redmi K60, auto-clickers are often blocked due to the Game Turbo feature.

6. Alternative methods: automation without clicker

If the autoclicker is not suitable for your task, consider alternatives:

1. MacroDroid (without ROOT)

The app allows you to create macros based on triggers (for example, by time or when you open an application), suitable for simple repetitive actions, but not for games.

2. Button Mapper

Reassigns physical buttons (like volume) to clicks at a given point on the screen. Works on most Xiaomi without ROOT.

3. Scrcpy + AutoHotkey (for PC)

If you need to automate your phone from your computer:

  1. Connect Xiaomi via scrcpy (screen streaming on PC).
  2. Use AutoHotkey to simulate clicks by coordinates.

Example of a script for AutoHotkey (click every 2 seconds at 300, 500):

#Persistent


SetTimer, ClickLoop, 2000




return





ClickLoop:




ControlClick, X300 Y500,,, 1

7 Risks and how to avoid them

Using autoclickers comes with several risks, especially on Xiaomi devices:

๐Ÿ’ก

Before using the autoclicker in games, check the rules of the service. For example, in Genshin Impact or Honor of Kings, automation is considered cheating and leads to (permanent locking).

Problem 1: Account blocking

  • ๐ŸŽฎ Games: Tencent, MiHoYo and Garena are actively fighting bots. Use autoclicker only in offline modes.
  • ๐Ÿ’ฐ Financial Applications: SberBank, Tinkoff and VTB can block access if automation is detected.

Problem 2: Screen overheating and wear

Long-term work of the auto-clicker (more than 1 hour) can lead to:

  • โš ๏ธ Overheating of the processor (especially on the Snapdragon 7xx/8xx).
  • โš ๏ธ Accelerated wear of the AMOLED- screen (pixel burnout risk).
How to reduce risks
Use the autoclicker in short sessions (maximum 20โ€“30 minutes). Turn off the function when charging, this increases the heat. Keep track of the temperature through the AIDA64 app (critically above 45ยฐC).

Problem 3: Conflicts with MIUI

On MIUI 14, the system can:

  • Automatically close the autoclicker after 5-10 minutes (due to battery optimization).
  • Block the application after the update.

Solution: Add the autoclicker to the optimization exceptions:

  1. Go to Settings โ†’ Battery โ†’ Battery Optimization.
  2. Select All Apps โ†’ Find your autoclicker โ†’ No restrictions.

FAQ: Frequent questions about autoclickers on Xiaomi

โ“ The autoclicker doesn't work in the game. What do you do?
The problem may be: ๐Ÿ”น Game protection (e.g. Easy Anti-Cheat in PUBG Mobile). No solution - the game blocks all automatic clicks. ๐Ÿ”น Permissions shortage. Check Overlay and ADB (section 3). ๐Ÿ”น Optimization MIUI. Disable it (section 5).
