Nooooooo. To me Miui’s colored icons was their little touch or uniqueness among all the OS and android skin that set them apart! I know most people prefer the monochrome icons but I really don’t get why. The multicolored icons are way more appealing visually. Why do you guys prefer simplistic black and white icons? Do you really find them prettier or is just because it’s the way they are in Android stock?
It wasn’t really the colorful icons that drove me crazy but the white background made it look like it was designed by a drunk 5 year old
They easiest solution is giving people the option to choose.
Is this an option to toggle?
Don’t even think about it.
it’s just on default theme, i have my icons changed to limitless and i haven’t seen white background since
Game changer
“Ok Google”?
what bothered me more was the one handed mode, being a MIUI thing, it’s impossible to activate (as far as I know) with the gestures as you have to swipe from the home button
¯\\\_(ツ)\_/¯
I’m shocked how so many people here are excited to see black and white indistinguishable icons, and refer to them as a big upgrade.
It’s now not possible to see in a glimpse if there is one notification that interests you more. a huge downgrade.
What’s the next level, you’ll be cheering if all the phone were black and white?
A bunch of pretentious geeks.
You know what? This might be enough to make me consider MIUI.
Sigh… You’re one of *those* people
(jk)
It’s a small but really welcome change
Looks much better and more functional compared to just the colored app icon which doesn’t necessarily tell what the app is doing.
Every update destroys someone’s workflow.

I did not see that one coming 😂
Take your upvote sir 👍
On nougat and above MIUI 9.5 yes. On MIUI 10 no, because they love screwing around with notifications.
Sure, but it’d still be nice to have a way to activate it without voice. As for the one handed mode, I haven’t found a way to activate it either, maybe via Quick Ball or something? I don’t know… The last version I used was miui 8 and I have only used Lineage since…
P E R F E C T I ON
Which theme is this??
Was waiting for this since ages.which phone is it BTW?
The fuck is that ahah
They might be working on them, I guess.
Good grammar nazi bot.
‘Get’ on my nerves 🙁 only joking
When will we get a MIUI 10 update on Redmi 5 plus? any ideas?
Man you’re actually a real person 😅
I swear to god this is the first time I see one of your post and I genuinely it was a reddit nazi grammar bot 😂
Nicely done mate 👍
Bad bot.
The “you can remember it by” bit is always just “you can remember it by remembering the order the letters go in” like cheers mate, that’s helpful.
I HATE those white icons, there are not recognizable at ALL, I want the colored one BACK… wtf…
Redmi note 5 whyred
Good, it’s always the little things that go on my nerves!
Would also love to get a dark shadow when I open a FOLDER on the homescreen. Really don’t see why the folder background is 100% transparent…at least add some blur for gods sake, there’s nothing worse than icons / white text overlapping with a colorful wallpaper and other icons.
Hey, Kosme-ARG, just a quick heads-up:
**comming** is actually spelled **coming**. You can remember it by **one m**.
Have a nice day!

Finally some good fucking food
If I remember correctly it used to be like that. No idea why they changed it.
But there might be colorblind people out there who cannot tell red and green that happen to be colors of tornado and earthquake guards on their phone! YOUR UPDATE MURDERS DISABLED.
i hate this actually. one of the reasons i hated stock
Shit, comming from a windows phone I like the multicoloured icons.
I can see where they come from. Well a page is turned I guess. I’ll definitely miss the colored icons that I always associated to Miui. But hey, I’m pretty sure we’ll be able to tweak the new icons
is it on android 7.1 aswell?
finally! now can you expand notification with one finger swipe down like normal android?
Maybe becoz most people colourblind LOL
Just Joking
EDIT-Spellings correction
I am comming
Great news. Cant wait for the release by ota. Mid-July, right?
Unfortunately, not all icons are monochrome. Notorious amongst some with colour icons are miuis own apps and some systemui related ones like a in-progress dialogue icon and some others. I hated it.
Global? I hope china roms get those too.
Some people like monochrome because it is more stylistically consistent with the rest of the status bar (clocks, signals and stuff).
I personally like colored icons because it’s easier to tell which app it is coming from.

Every now and again I give MIUI a swirl because it seems like a promising rom but after a month or so I want to throw my phone against the wall and I go back to RR
After all these years, finally! MIUI doesn’t look as cartoonish as before now!
there’s been a few added through the past test builds, it seems like they are, yes.
OMG FINALLY! I was wondering when will they find out how horrible it was… Especially when an app has more types of notifications (e.g. Play Store), and you had to swipe down to find out what it was about. I’m so glad they’re addressing it! But still – does anyone have an idea how will they solve activating Google Assistant considering the new gesture navigation? They haven’t thought much about it imho…
