How to put an auto dialer on Xiaomi: all the ways to Android

Auto dialing on Xiaomi smartphones is a useful feature that saves time when re-calling busy subscribers. Especially relevant for business users, support services or when you need to urgently call the operator. Unlike iPhone, where auto dialing is implemented at the iOS level, on Android (including MIUI firmware), this option is often hidden or requires additional settings.

In this article, we will discuss all the working ways to activate auto dial on Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO devices, from standard tools to third-party applications. Consider the features of different versions of MIUI (12 to 14) and Android (10-14), and explain why the feature may not work on some models. If you need to set up automatic re-call after a reset or are busy, read on.

What is an auto dialer and why you need it on Xiaomi

Auto dialing (or auto call retry) is a feature that automatically repeats dialing at a given interval if the subscriber is busy or not responding. On Xiaomi smartphones, it is useful in several scenarios:

• 📞 Occupied lines: when to call a bank hotline, customer service or public service, where it is often occupied.
• 🏢 Corporate Communication: For employees who have to call customers constantly.
• 🚨 Emergency: If you need to contact a person immediately, but they don't answer the phone.
• 🌍 International calls: Repeated dialing with country code without manual entry.

On the iPhone, the auto dialer is built into the system and enabled by a single tap. On Android (including MIUI), the situation is more complicated: manufacturers often remove this feature from the standard set, leaving it only for carriers, but there are workarounds from hidden settings to third-party utilities.

⚠️ Warning: On some Xiaomi models (e.g. Redmi Note 10 Pro or POCO X3 Pro), auto dialing may conflict with the dual SIM function. If you have two SIM cards, check the priority for calls to Settings → SIM- cards and mobile networks.

Method 1: Standard Auto dialer via MIUI settings

In firmware MIUI 12-14, the auto dialing function is hidden in the back of the menu. It's not available on all models, but it's worth checking first. The instructions are relevant for Xiaomi, Redmi and POCO smartphones on Android 10-14:

1. Open the phone application (pipe icon).
2. Press three points (⋮) top-right → Select Settings.
3. Go to Additional or Additional Settings (name depends on the version of MIUI).
4. Find Autocall or Autocall, and if you don't have one, move on to the next one.
5. Activate the slider and set the interval for a second call (usually 5–30 seconds).

If the item is missing, then your Xiaomi model does not support the built-in auto dialer, in which case one of the applications described below, or the USSD- operator command, will help.

Method 2: Autocall via USSD- Operator Commands

If the built-in function is not available, you can activate the auto dialer via USSD- at the request of your mobile operator, which works at the network level, so it does not depend on the Xiaomi model.

• 📶 MTS: Dial *111*77# and follow the instructions. Auto dial is activated for 20 seconds.
• 📶 Beeline: Send USSD *110*09#. Repetitive interval is 15 seconds.
• 📶 MegaFon: Enter *105*611#. The feature only works for All Inclusive subscribers.
• 📶 Tele2: Dial *155*1#. Auto dial is valid 30 minutes after activation.

After sending the USSD- command, you will receive a SMS confirmation.

• The function can be paid (usually 1-3 rubles for activation).
• Auto dialing only works for outgoing calls within the operator's network.
• On some tariffs (for example, corporate) the function may be blocked.

⚠️ Attention: USSD- Auto dial commands change frequently. If the code doesn't work, check the current command on the operator's website or through support (e.g., 0890 for MTS).

Method 3: Auto dialing apps from Google Play

If standard methods don't work, third-party apps will come to the rescue. Google Play has some proven utilities that emulate an auto dial on Xiaomi. We tested three of the most reliable ones:

1. Auto Redial (Auto-Traffic)

A simple application with a minimalist interface, which allows you to configure:

• 🕒 Repeat interval (from 5 to 60 seconds).
• 🔄 Number of attempts (up to 10 times).
• 📵 Ignoring employment or "not responding."

Download Auto Redial on Google Play.

2. Redial (Repeated set)

More advanced utility with support:

• 📋 Call history (repeated last number)
• 🔕 Blacklist (exclusion of certain numbers)
• 📊 Statistics of successful dial-ups.

The minus is an ad. Download: Redial on Google Play.

3. Auto Call Recorder & Redial

A combo application that combines auto dialing and recording conversations, suitable for business users.

• 🎤 Automatic recording of dialups.
• ☁️ Sync with Google Drive.
• 🔒 Encryption of records.

Download Auto Call Recorder on Google Play.

Before installing, check the permissions of the application. Auto dial requires rights:

• Reading call logs (to repeat the last numbers).
• Making calls (for automatic dialing).
• Display over other windows (for call notifications).

💡

If the application does not start an auto dial, check the battery settings: add it to the battery optimisation exceptions (in Settings → Apps → Permissions → Autorun).

Method 4: Auto dialing via Tasker (for advanced)

If you like automation, Tasker is a powerful tool for creating custom scripts, including auto dialing, which takes time to set up, but gives you maximum flexibility.

• 🔄 Repeat call only during business hours.
• 📵 Ignoring blacklist numbers.
• 🔔 Notification before re-entry.

Instructions for setting:

1. Install Tasker from Google Play.
2. Create a new profile (+ → Status → Phone → Call).
3. As a condition, select Type: Outgoing and Condition: Occupied/Not responding.
4. Add the task (+ → Phone → Dial) and specify the variable %CNUM (last dialed number).
5. Set a delay before repeating (e.g. Wait: 20 seconds).

The finished profile will look like this:

Profile: Auto dial-up




Event: Outgoing Call → Status: Occupied




Task:




1.Wait: 20 seconds




2. Call: %CNUM

⚠️ Warning: Tasker consumes an additional battery. If you notice a quick discharge, limit the background activity of the application in the settings MIUI (Settings → Battery → Battery Optimization).

Why Automatic Calling May Not Work for Xiaomi

Even after setting up the auto dialer correctly, it sometimes fails to function, and here are the typical reasons and ways to fix them:

Another common problem is conflict with dual SIM- cards. If you have two SIMs, make sure that:

• Auto dial is tied to the correct SIM (in call settings).
• The operator supports the function (some virtual operators, such as Tinkoff Mobile, can block auto-replay).

💡

If the auto dial stopped working after the MIUI update, try resetting the network settings: Settings → SIM- Cards and mobile networks → Reset network settings.

Safety and ethics of using an auto dial-up

Auto dialing is a convenient tool, but abuse of it can cause inconvenience to others.

• ⏰ Limit the number of attempts: 3-5 repeats are enough. Endless calls can be considered spam.
• 🕒 Keep time in mind: Do not use auto dialing at night (22:00 to 8:00) or on weekends.
• 🚫 Eliminate emergency services: Numbers 112, 102, 103, etc. should not be repeated automatically.
• 📵 Please respect confidentiality: Do not set up an auto dial to someone else's number without consent.

Some operators (such as MegaFon) may block your number for frequent automated calls, and if you receive an alert from the operator, temporarily turn off the function.

Also remember that auto dialing through third-party apps can:

• 🔍 Collect data about your calls (check the privacy policy).
• 📱 Discharge the battery faster due to background activity.
