As you can see, there are numerous applications that automatically determine your location and transmit it with a high probability. In this case:

  • Xiaomi Cloud
  • RemoteProvisioner
  • Find device
  • Home screen
  • Games
  • Translation service
  • Xiaomi service framework
  • System Daemon
  • MSA
  • SIM activation service
  • Landscape view
  • System SDK
  • Quick apps
  • Mi Link
  • App vault
  • Statistics
  • MAB
  • Google Play services
  • System Update Service
  • …

Be sure that you cannot get rid of all these applications and system processes so easily.

Don’t think that you can protect your privacy with a Xiaomi Android device without any effort.

Take care!
