If you are also getting frustrated by Redmi Glance, then this article is for you. Here, I will share the simplest way to disable Glance permanently on MI, Redmi, Xiaomi, and POCO phones.
What is Glance?
Glance is a lock screen feature available on Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO smartphones. It automatically displays wallpapers, news, entertainment content, and recommendations whenever you wake up your phone.
Although some users enjoy these updates, many people find them distracting, especially if they prefer a clean lock screen with their own wallpaper.
Why Disable Glance?
There are several reasons why users want to turn off Glance:
- Removes unwanted lock screen content.
- Gives you a clean and distraction-free wallpaper.
- Helps reduce mobile data usage.
- May slightly improve battery life.
- Stops automatic content updates on the lock screen.
If you don’t like changing wallpapers or seeing news every time you unlock your phone, disabling Glance is the best option.
How to Disable Glance in MI Permanently
Follow these simple steps:
- Open Settings on your phone.
- Go to Lock Screen or Lock Screen & AOD.
- Tap Glance for Mi, Wallpaper Carousel, or Lock Screen Magazine (the name depends on your device).
- Turn the feature Off and confirm if prompted.
After restarting, Glance should no longer appear on your lock screen.
FAQs
Can I uninstall Glance completely?
Yes. On many Xiaomi, Redmi, and POCO devices, you can disable or uninstall the Wallpaper Carousel/Glance app. However, some phones only allow you to disable it.
Does disabling Glance improve battery life?
The improvement is usually small, but turning off Glance can reduce background activity, mobile data usage, and battery consumption.
Will my lock screen wallpaper be removed?
No. Your current wallpaper will remain the same, and you can set any static wallpaper you want.
