In this tutorial, we will show you how to remove bloatware as well as ads from Redmi Note 9S. The device is a rehashed version of the Redmi Note 9 Pro which comes with Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G paired with up to 6GB of RAM. Redmi Note 9S packs a quad rear camera 48 MP main camera accompanied by an 8 MP wide-angle camera with a 119-degree field of view, a 5 MP macro lens, and a 2 MP depth sensor.
Furthermore, these devices run on Xiaomi’s own customized OS skin dubbed as MIUI. This is highly regarded by many as among the most customizable and feature-rich skin. While all these are quite commendable, there are a few downsides to it as well. First and foremost, Xiaomi, Redmi, and Poco devices run on MIUI that is always known to incorporate a ton of bloatware apps.
Furthermore, these apps are treated as a system app, hence you cannot uninstall or remove them from the App Info page. However, the issue doesn’t stop here. Xiaomi has gone a step ahead and has incorporated ads inside the OS itself. These ads are present everywhere, even inside the device’s Settings page. This infuriates the users and rightly so. However, you could now remove all these ads as well as the bloatware with the help of some ADB commands and a few handy tweaks. Here are all the required instructions to carry out both these tasks on Redmi Note 9S.
