How to turn on autodialer Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro: all ways

The Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro remains a popular smartphone even years after its release, but its standard features are sometimes hidden from users. One of these is an auto dial that allows you to automatically repeat dialing if a subscriber is busy or not responding. In this article, we will discuss all the ways to activate the feature, including hidden MIUI settings and third-party applications.

It’s important to understand that auto dialing on the Redmi Note 9 Pro doesn’t work like on older push-button phones β€” there’s no physical re-typing button, instead using software implementation through system tools or additional software. We tested all methods on current versions of MIUI (including MIUI 14) to ensure performance.

If you make frequent calls to busy numbers or have communication problems, this feature will save time, but there are nuances: some operators can block frequent repeat calls, and in roaming, an auto dial can lead to additional costs.

Method 1: Built-in auto dialing function in MIUI

MIUI firmware for the Redmi Note 9 Pro has a hidden autocall option, but it's not always available in the basic settings.

  1. Open the phone application (pipe icon).
  2. Click on the three dots in the upper right corner β†’ select Settings.
  3. Go to Additional Settings (or System Call Settings in new versions of MIUI).
  4. Look for Auto Call or Repeat Call.

If you don’t have the option on this menu, try an alternative route:

  • πŸ“± Go to Settings. β†’ Annexes β†’ Application management.
  • πŸ” Find the phone in the list and open its settings.
  • βš™οΈ Slip the Permits. β†’ Check if Call permission is enabled (sometimes permission blocking hides functions).

Important point: on some firmware (for example, MIUI 12.5 Enhanced) The function can be called Quick Repeat and can be in the Quick Actions section of the call. To see it, dial any number, click on the keyboard of the dial symbol "β‹―" (three dots) and hold - sometimes there is a context menu with an auto dialer.

Method 2: Use of the USSD-operator code

Some mobile operators (for example, MTS, Beeline, Tele2) provide auto dialing service through the Internet. USSD-This works independently of the phone model, but requires activation on the operator side.

Method 3: Third-party applications for auto dialing

If the built-in methods don't work, you can install specialized apps from Google Play, and we tested 5 popular utilities and selected the best ones:

  • πŸ”„ Auto Redial is a simple interface that supports a blacklist of numbers that do not work.
  • πŸ“ž Redial Pro allows you to configure the delay between attempts (5 to 120 seconds) and the number of repetitions (up to 20.
  • πŸ”‹ Call Repeater - works in the background, does not drain the battery. Supports a widget on the home screen for quick access.

Instructions for setting up the example of Auto Redial:

  1. Install the application and open it.
  2. Click + in the lower right corner to add the number.
  3. Enter the phone or select from the call log.
  4. Set the parameters: πŸ•’ Delay between calls: 15–30 seconds (optimum for most operators). πŸ”’ Max: 5-10 attempts (more can block number). πŸ”” Sound alert: turn on so as not to miss the subscriber's response.

How to check the security of the application?
Before installing, open a developer profile on Google Play and check: 1. Account registration date (suspicious if less than 1 year). 2. Number of other apps (if only one is high risk). 3. Reviews in English/Chinese with template text (may be "cheating"). Use services like VirusTotal to check out APK-File (if you download it outside of the Play Market).

Method 4: Auto-Calling through Google Contacts

Little-known life hack: Google Contacts has a re-typing feature that syncs with the Redmi Note 9 Pro. This method works if you use Google Phone as your primary calling app.

Set up an auto dial for specific scenarios

Auto dialing is useful not only for busy numbers, but also in other situations. Let's consider the typical cases and optimal settings:

ScriptRecommended settingsNotes
Subscriber is often busyInterval: 20-30 seconds Attempts: 8-10 Appendix: Auto RedialToo many calls can block your number from the operator.
Poor network coverageInterval: 45–60 seconds Attempts: 5 Method: USSD-codeLong intervals reduce the load on the network.
Roaming callsInterval: 60+sec Attempts: 3 Method: Built-in MIUI functionFrequent roaming calls are expensive. Use Wi-Fi calls.

For roaming, it is especially important to turn off auto dialing when the balance is low - some operators write off funds even for failed calls.

Problems and solutions when setting up an auto dial

Even after you set up the auto dialer correctly, here are the typical errors and ways to fix them:

  • 🚫 The function is not activated: check if the battery is blocking it β†’ Optimization (add the app to exceptions). Update MIUI up to the latest version (in old firmware bugs with auto dial-up).
  • πŸ“΅ Calls will not be repeated: Make sure SIM-card inserted SIM 1 (on some firmware, auto dial only works for the main card). Check the balance - operators block the service when the balance is negative.
  • ⚑ Battery discharges quickly: Turn off background activity of the auto dialing app in Settings β†’ Annexes β†’ Permits β†’ Autorun. Use Power Saving Mode for the application (but this can reduce reliability).

⚠️ Note: Redmi Note 9 Pro with custom firmware (for example, LineageOS or Pixel Experience) built-in auto dialer MIUI In this case, only a third-party application or USSD-code.

FAQ: Frequent questions about auto dialing on Redmi Note 9 Pro

Can I set up a phone call for a specific time of day?
Yes, but only through third-party apps like Auto Redial. In the settings of the utility there is an option to specify time intervals (for example, only from 9:00 to 18:00), the built-in MIUI function does not know this.
Why is the operator blocking my calls?
Operators limit auto dialing to prevent spam. Typical reasons for blocking: More than 10 attempts in 5 minutes. Calls to emergency numbers (112, 911, etc.). SIM-Less than 3 days (new numbers are often limited) Solution: reduce the number of attempts or increase the interval between them.
How to turn off the auto dialer if it interferes?
Disconnection methods depend on activation method: Built-in function MIUI: Go back to Settings β†’ Additional call settings and deactivate the option. USSD-code: send the cancellation code (for example, for MTS β€” *111*777*0#). Third-party app: remove it or disable it in autorun settings.
Does the auto dialer work in the "Airplane" mode?
No. In airplane mode, all network functions are disabled, including calls. Auto dialing will only work after you quit this mode and restore communication. If you need the function to work in low signal conditions, use Wi-Fi calls (configure in Settings). β†’ SIM-maps and mobile networks β†’ Additionally. β†’ Wi-Fi calls).
Can I make a phone call to two numbers at the same time?
The standard MIUI means are not. But some applications (like Dual Redial) support multi-dialing. Note that this puts a high strain on the network and can result in both numbers being blocked by the operator. Alternatively, set the auto dial to the first number, and after unsuccessful attempts manually call the second.
