How to make an auto dial on Xiaomi Redmi: all ways with step-by-step instructions

Auto dialing is a useful feature that allows you to automatically call back a subscriber if his line is busy or he is not responding. On Xiaomi Redmi smartphones, it can be implemented both with standard MIUI tools and using third-party applications. In this article, we will analyze all the current methods for the Redmi Note 12/13, Redmi 10/11, POCO X5 and other devices based on MIUI 14/15.

Auto dialing is especially in demand in the business environment, where it is important to call the client on the first attempt, or for personal purposes - for example, to remember to call a relative back. However, not everyone knows that on some Redmi models, auto dialing only works through the phone app from Google, and not through the standard phone. MIUI-Next, detailed instructions for each method.

1. Auto dial through the standard application "Phone" MIUI

The standard app Phone in MIUI has a hidden auto dial function, but it's not available on all firmware. To activate it, follow the following steps:

Open the Phone app and go to the Call Log, find the contact you want to call and tap it. In the menu that opens, click three dots (⋮) In the upper right corner, select Call Settings, and you can have Auto Repeat or AutoDial, and you need to turn it on.

If there is no such item, then your version of MIUI does not support the function directly, and in this case, the workaround will help:

• 📱 Create a quick dial shortcut: press the contact icon on the home screen → Choose Create a shortcut → In the shortcut settings, specify the number of repetitions (if available).
• ⏱️ Use a reminder: Add an event to your Calendar or Notes with a reminder of a call again.
• 🔄 Enable "Repeat Call" in the settings SIM-Cards (not available on all operators).

⚠️ Attention: On some firmware MIUI 14 and below, the auto dial function may conflict with the operator's services (e.g., "Waiting for a Call" from MTS or Beeline). → SIM-maps and mobile networks → Additional settings.

2. Autocall via Google's Phone app

The Google Phone app (installed separately from the Play Market) has an auto dial feature built in that is more stable than the standard Xiaomi solution.

1. Install the Google Phone app and make it the default app for calls (Settings → Apps → Default → Phone).
2. Open Google Phone, go to the Journal and select the contact you want.
3. Tap it on three points (⋮) next to the number and select Auto dialing settings.
4. Set the interval between repetitions (from 5 to 60 seconds) and the number of attempts (up to 10).

The advantage of this method is flexibility of settings and compatibility with most Redmi models, including the Redmi Note 12 Pro+ and POCO F5. However, note that the application may require additional permissions to access contacts and call logs.

3. Third-party applications for auto dial-up

If standard methods do not work, you can use specialized applications, and here are the proven options with high ratings in the Play Market:

To install any of these applications:

1. Download it from Play Market.
2. Open and provide access to the Call Log and Contacts.
3. In the application settings, specify the number for auto dialing, the interval (for example, 15 seconds) and the number of attempts.
4. Activate the function and check its work with a test call.

⚠️ Note: Some auto dialing apps (e.g. Redial Pro) may consume extra battery due to constant background operation. To reduce consumption, add them to the battery optimization exception list: Settings → Battery → Optimizing the battery → Select applications.

4. Auto dial through tasks in Google Assistant

If you need to automate the process based on time or conditions (such as “call back if the caller didn’t respond during business hours”), Google Assistant will help, a method that is suitable for users who actively use voice commands.

Instructions:

1. Activate Google Assistant with a voice command (OK, Google) or by holding the Home button.
2. Say, “Remind me to call [contact name] back in 10 minutes” or “Repeat the call [number] every 5 minutes until I answer.”
3. The assistant will create the task and remind you of it until you complete the action.

The downside is that you don't have to be fully automated, you have to manually initialize a call after a reminder, but it's convenient for one-off cases where you don't want to install additional apps.

💡

If Google Assistant doesn’t recognize the command, try to word it differently, such as “Put a reminder to call your mom back at 15:00” or “Add a task: call Ivan in an hour.”

5. setting up an auto dial through a communications operator

Some mobile operators (e.g. MTS, Beeline, Tele2) offer their own auto dialing services, operate at the network level, so they are independent of the phone model or firmware, but there are limitations to such services:

• 📶 Paid subscription: usually costs from 30 to 100 rubles per month.
• ⏳ Fixed intervals: the operator sets the time between repetitions (most often 30-60 seconds).
• 📞 Limitation on number of attempts: usually no more than 5-10 times per call.

To connect the service:

1. Send. USSD-The team (for example, for MTS *111*777#, Beeline — *110*789#).
2. Or call the operator and request the connection of the “Call” or “Recall”.
3. Once activated, the service will work automatically on any outgoing calls.

The advantage of this method is reliability (regardless of smartphone), but it is only suitable for subscribers of one operator, for example, if you call from MTS to MegaFon, the auto dial may not work.

6. Automation via Tasker (for advanced users)

Tasker allows you to create complex automations, including auto dialing for different conditions (time of day, location, subscriber status, etc.), this method requires technical skills, but gives maximum flexibility.

Example of the task for an auto dial:

Profile: Auto dial (Event → Phone → Call not answered)


Task:




1. Wait 15 seconds




2. Repeat the call (Action → Phone → Call)




3. If the subscriber has answered → to stop the task




4 Otherwise repeat steps 1–3 to 5 times.

To set up:

1. Install Tasker and provide all the necessary permissions.
2. Create a new profile with a trigger Call is not answered.
3. Add the actions on the template above, specifying the desired number and interval.
4. Test the problem on an irresponsible contact.

⚠️ Tasker may conflict with energy saving MIUI. To avoid problems, add it to the battery optimization exceptions and allow auto-start. Also make sure that in the security settings MIUI Allowed access to call logs for third-party applications.

💡

Tasker is the most powerful auto dialing tool, but it takes time to set up, suitable for users who need customization (for example, different intervals for different contacts or auto dial only during working hours).
