Xiaomi is now installing Google’s official phone calling app on its smartphones shipped outside of China. However, not everyone’s enthusiastic about these changes. That’s why many MIUI users are now switching to highly customizable True Phone Dialer. Nevertheless, we have to admit that the Google dialer app is not devoid of certain useful features. One of these functions is the filter of unwanted incoming calls. Is it possible to combine the benefits of both applications? It turns out you can, and today we’ll tell how to do it.
