How to turn on auto dialer on Xiaomi Redmi 10: all ways + error solving

Xiaomi Redmi 10 is one of the most popular budget smartphones, but its features often remain undisclosed. Auto dial (or auto call) is a useful feature that automatically calls back to a subscriber if the first call goes unanswered. In this article, we will discuss all the ways to activate it, including hidden MIUI settings, and also solve typical problems that users face.

It is important to understand that depending on the firmware version (MIUI 12, 13 or 14) and regional build (Global, Russia, China), the location of options may vary, and we tested all methods on current versions of the software and collected working solutions even for cases when the standard auto dialer is disabled by the operator.

If you’ve never used this feature, start with a basic setup through your phone’s menu. For power users, we’ve prepared instructions for activating through USSD codes and third-party apps, with a comparative table of their pros and cons.

What is an auto dialer and why is it needed on Redmi 10?

Auto dial (or auto call replay) is a feature that automatically re-calls a subscriber if the first call is missed or reset. On the Xiaomi Redmi 10, it works in two scenarios:

• 🔄 Repeat at a fixed interval (e.g. every 30 seconds before a response).
• 📞 Repeat (only one additional call after resetting).

The function is particularly useful in situations:

• 🏢 Poor network coverage – when a call is often cut off.
• 🚗 When driving, when you can not constantly press "Call back".
• 💼 For business users who need to contact the customer.

On Redmi 10, the auto dial can be implemented at the level of:

1. MIUI firmware is an integrated feature (not available in all regional versions).
2. SIM cards are the service of the operator (MTS, Beeline, Tele2, MegaFon).
3. Third-party applications – if the first two options are not available.

Method 1: Enabling Auto dialer via MIUI settings

The easiest method is to activate the feature in the phone's standard menu, but there's a caveat: some versions of MIUI (especially Global and EEA) have the option hidden or missing.

1. Open the phone application (pipe icon).
2. Click on the three dots in the upper right corner → select Settings.
3. Scroll down to the Additional or Call section (depending on version).
4. Look for the Autocall option or Autocall option.
5. Activate the slider and select the repetition interval (usually 10, 20 or 30 seconds).

If you don't have a paragraph, don't worry. First, check the MIUI version in Settings → About Phone → MIUI version. Second, try updating the firmware:

Check the current version in Settings → About the phone

Connect to Wi-Fi (update "over the air" weighs 1.5-2 GB)

Charge your phone at least 50%

Make a backup copy of contacts-->

The update may bring back hidden functions, and if you still don't have an auto dial, move on to the next one.

Method 2: Activation through USSD-operator code

If you don't have a built-in feature, try connecting auto dialing as a service for your mobile operator. It's free, but it only works for outgoing calls from this SIM card. USSD-codes for Russian operators (2026):

To check the status of the service, use the codes:

• MTS: *111*712#
• Beeline: *110*712#
• Megaphone: *105*711#
• Tele2: *155*1*3*2#

The service may not work if:

• 🛑 Negative balance on the counter (even at zero").
• 📵 You are roaming (some operators block auto dialing abroad).
• 🔒 On the SIM card activated mode "Saving traffic".

💡

If USSD-codes do not work, try to send them through the operator's application (My MTS, Beeline Pro, MegaFon Service, etc.). Sometimes the web version of services works more stable.

Method 3: Third-party applications for auto dialing

Hidden MIUI settings: how to return auto dial through the engineering menu

For power users, there is a way to enable auto dialing via the Engineering Mode, which works on most versions of Redmi 10, but requires caution – incorrect changes can disrupt the phone.

Auto dial and battery: how to reduce charge consumption

Frequent recalling can significantly reduce the battery life of the Redmi 10, and in our testing, the 10 second repetition interval increases the charge consumption by 15-20% to minimize the impact of:

• 🔋 Set a repetition interval of at least 30 seconds.
• 📴 Disable AutoDial for Badly Covered Numbers (Add These to the Blacklist in the App).
• 🔌 Use Energy Saving Mode in Battery Settings, but Add Auto dial app to Exceptions.
• 📶 Activate. 4G VoLTE – it spends less energy on calls than it does on mobile phones 3G.

Comparison of battery consumption at different settings:

If you use an external battery (powerbank), auto dial can be done more often - the charge consumption of the main battery in this case is uncritical.
