If this does not work

  • An app drains the battery? Its row in the list shows its share. HyperOS can also close apps in the background: Xiaomi closing apps in the background.
  • Apps stop working in Ultra battery saver? Xiaomi says it restricts most power-hungry features and keeps only calls, messages and network connectivity. Switch Current mode back to Balanced, which Xiaomi recommends for normal use. Source: Generic User Guide for HyperOS 3.0
