Back in the summer of 2024, information appeared that Xiaomi developers could introduce a new “Recent Applications” menu style in the new HyperOS 2, made in a “card” style copied from iOS.
The manufacturer even conducted a survey among users about this (details), although he decided not to publish the results, but some Xiaomi top managers close to the developers of the system software also hinted at the possibility of introducing this functionality into HyperOS.
However, according to many network sources, Xiaomi decided to cancel the introduction of “iPhone” multitasking in HyperOS 2, and cited “high consumption of hardware resources” as the reason for this decision.
Xiaomi failed to optimize this new style of multitasking interface and decided to prioritize system flexibility and resource efficiency, as this is a key philosophy of HyperOS 2.
At the same time, many fans of Xiaomi products are confident that such an innovation could simplify the transition between running applications using an intuitive and at the same time simple interface.
