Start by opening the camera app on your Xiaomi smartphone. At the top right of the screen, tap the main menu, represented by three superimposed lines, and enter the Camera settings.
2. Disable the watermark
Once in the Camera Settings, enter the Watermark menu, and turn off the Device Watermark option. All photos you capture will now be without this watermark.
3. Remove the watermark on your old photos
