How to make an auto dial on a Xiaomi phone: 5 ways + hidden chips MIUI

Automatic dialing on Xiaomi smartphones is a feature that saves time when you make frequent calls to the same numbers. Although MIUI does not offer an integrated solution out of the box, you can implement auto dialing in several ways, from standard Android tools to specialized applications. In this article, we will analyze all the current methods taking into account the features of Xiaomi 2026 firmware.

It's important to understand that the term "auto-dial" is often understood in different ways: someone looks for automatic re-dial when a dropped call is made, someone needs a delayed call sent on schedule. We'll look at both options, and we'll also reveal the hidden MIUI feature for quick dial-up via voice assistant, which less than 15% of users know about. All instructions are tested on the Redmi Note 12, POCO X5 and Xiaomi 13T models with the latest updates.

Built-in MIUI capabilities: what can be done without apps

MIUI firmware (versions 14 and later) hides a few useful features for working with calls that many users do not notice.

The easiest way is to use a call log, and when you drop a call, you get a re-typing button next to the contact, which is not exactly an auto dial, but a manual re-do.

• 🔄 Enable Settings → Special facilities → Universal access → Call Auto-Response (only for incoming calls)
• ⏱️ Set up Settings → System and device → Time-on/off schedule for calls
• 🎤 Use voice commands Alice from Yandex (integrated into the MIUI for Russia)

Feature Xiaomi: in the latest versions of MIUI has a function Quick dial through swipe down the contact in the call log. This is not a full-fledged auto dial, but speeds up the process by 3 times compared to the standard set.

2. Set up re-setting through standard Android tools

Android 12+ (which runs MIUI 14+) has a hidden re-typing feature that can be activated through the engineering menu codes.This method works on all Xiaomi smartphones, including the budget Redmi models:

1. Open the phone application
2. Enter the combination: ##4636##
3. Go to the section Information about the phone
4. Scroll down to AutoDial when crashing and turn it on

Once activated, the system will automatically repeat the dial in 10 seconds if the call was reset. The default number is 3, but this value can be changed through the ADB-Teams (more on this below).

💡

If the engineering menu does not open, check if it is blocked by antivirus or MIUI Security in the settings.

3.Apps for auto dialing: TOP-3 solutions for Xiaomi

If the built-in features are not enough, third-party apps come to the rescue, we tested 15 programs and selected the best 3 that work steadily on Xiaomi without conflicts with MIUI:

• 📱 Auto Redial is the simplest solution with the ability to adjust the interval between attempts (from 5 to 60 seconds) and the number of repetitions (up to 20.
• ⏰ Scheduled Call: You can set up weekly reminders of important calls (e.g., an alarm clock to call your mom every Monday).
• 🤖 Tasker + AutoInput is an advanced automation solution that allows you to create a script that says, "If a call is dropped, repeat the dial in 15 seconds 5 times.

An important nuance: Xiaomi with MIUI 14+ requires you to manually give applications permission to Settings → Applications → Special Access → Autostart and Change system settings. Without this program will not be able to intercept call events.

⚠️ Note: Auto Redial applications and analogues may conflict with the function of Recording conversations in the MIUI. If after installation, call records have ceased to be saved, disable auto dial or use alternative programs.

4. ADB-commands for advanced auto dialing settings

For users who are ready to work with Android Debug Bridge, you can fine-tune the auto dial settings, which requires a PC and enabled USB debugging, but gives maximum control:

adb shell settings put global auto_redial_enabled 1


adb shell settings put global auto_redial_delay 15000




adb shell settings put global auto_redial_attempts 5

Transcript of commands:

• auto_redial_enabled 1 — function
• auto_redial_delay 15000 — delay between attempts in milliseconds (here) 15 seconds)
• auto_redial_attempts 5 — maximum number of attempts

For Xiaomi models with Snapdragon processors (such as Xiaomi 12S Ultra), additional options are available via adb shell service call phone, but setting them up requires knowledge of the internal architecture of Android.

5. Voice assistant as an auto dialing tool

Little-known fact: Yandex’s Alice voice assistant, integrated into MIUI for the Russian region, can perform delayed voice commands, including calls, which works even when the screen is locked:

1. Activate Alice with a long press on the home button or a voice command "OK, Yandex"
2. Say, "Remind me to call my mom at 15:00."
3. At the appointed time, the assistant will offer to make a call with one tap.

For Xiaomi models with Google Assistant, a similar feature is available through the command “Ok Google, remind me to call [contact name] at [time].” The advantage of this method is that you do not need to install additional applications.

⚠️ Note: Redmi with MediaTek processors (e.g. Redmi) 10C) voice assistants may not work properly due to manufacturer restrictions, and in this case, it is recommended to use specialized applications.

Xiaomi engineers have added several non-obvious features to MIUI that speed up the dial-up process:
