Among the many applications Xiaomi pre-installed, Game Turbo is definitely one of the most useful. This tool helps to optimize several parameters of your mobile Every game to run at high performance. Additionally, it helps you see the FPS at which each app is running and more.

However, you may have noticed one detail recently: the Game Turbo icon is nowhere to be seen, and it’s from the drop-down menu that appears when the game starts every time you use it. What if you want to fix something without playing the game? How can you get game turbo? If Game Turbo does not appear on your Xiaomi, we will tell you why and how to solve this problem to log in at any time.
Game Turbo is integrated with another app so it won’t show up in the app drawer.
In the first game, Turbo was a standalone app that could be accessed from its own icon in the app drawer. However, since 2020, and with the arrival of MIUI 12, Xiaomi has integrated it into its security section: Xiaomi Security.
Although we don’t know why, Game Turbo has since stopped being accessible from its own icon. This is the reason why you don’t see the app anywhere, although it usually runs when you launch a game.
Does this mean you can’t enter Game Turbo to adjust game parameters without doing it? You can enter the settings of this device at any time, even if it does not appear in the app drawer, but you should know how to do it. There are two ways and they work equally well on the latest versions of MIUI and HyperOS.
Run Game Turbo on your Xiaomi, Redmi or POCO from the security app
As an integrated tool in Xiaomi Security, it’s only natural to be able to access Game Turbo from the app drawer. This is how it is done.
Go to your mobile app drawer.Enter Xiaomi Security. Swipe to the end to open the Tools menu. Tap on Game Turbo to start.Optimize all the parameters you need to enjoy your optimized games for better performance.
We don’t know why Xiaomi decided to enable Game Turbo access from the Settings menu as part of another app. However, it is there and you can run the application by following these steps, although you still have to install Xiaomi Security
Go to your phone’s settings menu and swipe until you find the “Special Functions” option.Tap Game Turbo to run it.
Game Turbo is nowhere to be seen, could it be because your mobile phone is not compatible? Solution
Now, there is a slightly more problematic situation than the previous problems. There is a time when Game Turbo is not running when starting a game, or It won’t show up anywhere on your phone either.Not even in the above mentioned.
In this case, it’s probably because you don’t have the app installed and it has nothing to do with any compatibility issue on your smartphone. Current versions of Xiaomi Security (and Game Turbo) are compatible with Android 10 (MIUI 11) or higher versionsSo there should be no problem.
So why not? There are two reasons: first, uninstall Xiaomi security at some point and with it Game Turbo; and secondly, As you have Chinese MIUI or HyperOS ROM. Yes, Game Turbo is not available in Chinese ROMs.
In the second, there is nothing to do but change to the international ROM or EEA, so we take the first reason to solve it. What is the solution to be able to use game turbo again? Reinstall Xiaomi Security. This app was available in the Play Store for a while, but it’s no longer there, so we have to go to old reliability: manually download and install the APK. Here’s how it’s done:
Enter your favorite web browser (we use Chrome) and type “Xiaomi Security” in the search bar.Select the latest version (v8.9.3 in our case), go to the download section and press the down arrow icon.In the new window, tap the green “Download APK” button to confirm the download and wait for it to finish.
When the APK is downloaded, tap “Open” on the floating Chrome window.Make sure you want to enable the license, go back to Chrome and click “Install” on the floating window and wait for the installation to complete and enjoy Game Turbo in Xiaomi security.
Now one last thing you need to know. Exclusive versions of Game Turbo are available on APK Mirror and other alternative stores. However, you can see that they are very old versions from 2020 or earlier.
