Changelog and fixes

When it comes to the changelog, Xiaomi MIUI 10 global beta 8.8.9 update will fix many bugs addressing the issues with notification sounds in dual WhatsApp, cases where double notifications are shown for one message received on WhatsApp and Telegram and notification font. The Russian users have reported that the devices' security will stop working while charging and the latest update is said to come with a fix to the same.

In the Redmi 3S, the update resolves the issue of missing apps and the System UI crash when Bluetooth is disconnected. The other notable fix is the issue of blank toggles that appear in the notification shade on the eligible phones.

Given that the update's rollout will start resume soon, we can expect the company to fix the issue with dual apps soon.
