Step by step

1. 

   Open Lock screen

   Open Settings and tap Lock screen, below More connectivity options.

   Done

2. 

   Find Raise to wake

   Raise to wake is under Lock screen settings, just below Sleep. It was off on ours.

   Done

3. 

   Turn on Raise to wake

   Tap the switch; it turns blue. Xiaomi says the screen then wakes when you pick up or raise the phone, and shows the lock screen, notifications or the time.

   Done

4. 

   Double tap to wake

   Below it is Double tap to wake or turn off screen when device is locked. It was off on ours; tap the switch to turn it on. The note says double tap turns the screen off only with the Classic or Limitless theme.

   Done

If you do not see this option

• Always-on display & Lock screen? On some older models the route is different. For the REDMI Note 9 Pro, Xiaomi gives Settings, Always-on display & Lock screen, Raise to wake. Source: The Raise to wake feature doesn't work on the REDMI Note 9 Pro
• Which themes count? Our phone's note names the Classic and Limitless lock screen themes. Xiaomi's HyperOS 3 guide says double tap turns the screen off only when pre-installed themes are applied. Source: Generic User Guide for HyperOS 3.0
• Want to test it? Xiaomi suggests turning the screen off, then raising the phone to check that it wakes. Source: Does the screen of the REDMI Note 14 Pro+ 5G support the Raise to wake function?

If this does not work

• Raise to wake doesn't work? Xiaomi suggests checking the switch is on, updating the software and restarting. It also says the motion sensor can be checked in the hardware test: dial *#*#6484#*#* in the Phone app. Source: The Raise to wake feature doesn't work on the REDMI Note 9 Pro
• Double tap wakes but won't turn the screen off? Check your lock screen theme. The note says turning off by double tap works only with the Classic or Limitless theme. Source: Generic User Guide for HyperOS 3.0
• Battery drains a little faster? Xiaomi says Raise to wake can increase power use, although only slightly. Turn it off to save battery. Source: How to enable Raise to wake on the REDMI Pad SE 8.7?

About this guide

Two switches let you wake your Xiaomi without pressing the power button.

The screenshots are from our Redmi Note 15 Pro 5G with Xiaomi HyperOS 3.0.308.0 and Android 16, in Light mode. Both were off. We turned Raise to wake on for the picture and off again.
