If you’re using a Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO smartphone, you may have noticed a watermark like “Shot on Mi” or “Shot on Redmi” appearing on your photos. This watermark is a default feature in the MIUI camera app but can be easily enabled or disabled based on your preference. This guide will walk you through the steps to manage the camera watermark on your Xiaomi device.

Understanding the Camera Watermark Feature

The camera watermark in Xiaomi devices serves as a branding tool, indicating the device model used to capture the photo. While some users appreciate this feature, others prefer their photos without any additional text. Fortunately, Xiaomi provides options to enable, disable, or customize this watermark.

How to Disable the Camera Watermark

To remove the watermark from your photos, follow these steps:

  1. Open the Camera App: Launch the default camera application on your Xiaomi device.
  2. Access Camera Settings:
    • Tap on the three horizontal lines (menu icon) located at the top-right corner of the screen.
    • Select “Settings” from the dropdown menu.
  3. Navigate to Watermark Settings:
    • Scroll down and find the “Watermark” option.
    • Tap on it to access watermark settings.
  4. Disable the Watermark:
    • Toggle off the “Device watermark” option.
    • If there’s an option for “Add time stamp on photos,” you can toggle it off as well if you don’t want timestamps on your photos.

After completing these steps, new photos taken will no longer have the watermark.

Tips and Considerations

  • Software Updates: Ensure your device’s software and apps are up to date to access the latest features and improvements.
  • Third-Party Apps: If the default gallery app doesn’t offer watermark removal, third-party photo editing apps can help, but be cautious about app permissions and privacy.
  • Backup Photos: Before editing or removing watermarks, it’s a good practice to back up your original photos.
  • Customization: Personalizing your watermark can add a unique touch to your photos, especially if you’re sharing them on social media or using them professionally.

Conclusion

Managing the camera watermark on Xiaomi devices is straightforward. Whether you prefer your photos with or without the watermark, Xiaomi’s MIUI provides the flexibility to suit your preferences. By following the steps outlined above, you can easily enable, disable, or customize the watermark feature to enhance your photography experience.
