Xiaomi announced the new MIUI 10 during the launch of the Mi 8 series, however, it’s only the Chinese ROM that is available so far. For those eying the global version, the wait is still on.

So, in order to get the full experience of these apps on the latest MIUI 10, you have to flash them to the Chinese ROM.
