Xiaomi Reportedly Restricts HyperOS Theme Customization with New Store Rules
A recent claim suggests Xiaomi is tightening policies for HyperOS themes, potentially ending extensive UI customizations. According to a report from @iRaj_r, the updated Theme Store rules will limit what themes can alter on devices running HyperOS.
Stricter Requirements Target Full UI Tweaks
The new policies reportedly prohibit Control Center customization and full system UI modifications. This means themes will no longer be able to change core interface elements extensively. Popular Liquid Glass-style themes, known for their heavy design changes, appear to be banned under the new rules.
If accurate, this marks a significant change for HyperOS users who have relied on themes for a highly personalized look and feel. Xiaomi themes will now have to comply with much stricter guidelines, focusing on safer, more limited alterations.
Implications for the HyperOS Theme Ecosystem
This shift could end the era of deeply customized themes that enhanced user interfaces dramatically. The move likely aims to improve system stability and security by restricting risky modifications. However, it may disappoint users and developers who favored bold visual changes through themes.
At the moment, Xiaomi has not officially confirmed these policy changes. Users interested in HyperOS themes should watch for updates and new guidelines once Xiaomi publishes details.
What Readers Are Asking
- Will Control Center customization be removed from all HyperOS devices? The report suggests that themes will no longer be allowed to modify the Control Center at all, affecting all HyperOS models using the Theme Store.
- Are existing Liquid Glass themes blocked? Yes, according to the claim, Liquid Glass-style themes that apply comprehensive visual overhauls will not meet the new compliance rules.
- Does this mean theme downloads will stop? No, themes will likely continue but with stricter limits on what they can change in the system.
- Is this a confirmed Xiaomi policy? Not yet. The information is based on unofficial reports and should be confirmed by Xiaomi for full certainty.
good thing I’m switching to iphone
yeah yeah i don’t care i just want hyperos 4😋🤤
Well the true reason why liquid glass themes exist on the Themes app is because that all Redmi and some Poco devices don’t support that liquid glass feature itself, so people try to find another way to enjoy it by using the liquid glass themes available on the Themes app as I have mentioned earlier.
But let’s hope since Xiaomi has restricted the Themes app to allow users using the liquid glass themes, they will give it by default – this time to all mid-range and entry level devices here, not only just for flagship ones tho 😮😮

best decision was switching from my xiaomi 15 to a iphone 17 pro, feels so much better in every single aspect, never recommending a xiaomi phone to anyone ever again cuz they’ve fallen off so much and with their limitations and instabilities and horrible update schedule no one’s going anywhere. I recommend anyone who has xiaomi phones and is fed up to switch to iphone cuz you aint gonna regret it
