    The official name of the MIUI Smart toolbox feature

Lately, Xiaomi came with a Samsung’s ‘Edge panel’-like feature and named it as Smart toolbox. This clone feature from Samsung was made just to introduce quick access to the apps. This feature already exists in Samsung smartphones and tablets and other OEMs also offer it.

The feature is available in the MIUI weekly beta channel. Xiaomi took a lot of time to implement this feature, and it is still not launched as it is in its final stages. Also, the company has now given the official name to it too. Now it will be known as the sidebar feature instead of the Smart toolbox.

Presently, the users can access features while playing games and even while playing videos. On the other hand, it is yet to see what all the company includes in the feature. Also, we will see that if the smart toolbox aka sidebar feature can select nine-panel at a time just like the Samsung edge panel or will it include other features.
