Choose breathing, flashing, rainbow or alert effects for the right kind of signal.

No root required

Use Shizuku and ADB-level privileges to drive the LED rings without root. Your rules never leave the phone: anonymous usage statistics are optional and off by default.

02 / Under the hood

Simple rules.
Clear signals.

Aura stays out of the way. Set your rules once, then let the ring tell you who is calling or messaging without waking the whole phone.

04 / Questions

Before you light it up.

Can I customize the LEDs on a POCO X8 Pro?

Yes. Aura controls the back RGB LED rings and supports a color and animation for each app, contact or group notification.

Does Aura support HyperOS?

Yes. Aura is developed and tested for the POCO X8 Pro running HyperOS 3. Enable the phone's back light effects first, then disable HyperOS System LED in Aura to avoid double lighting.

Does Aura need root?

No. The validated setup uses Shizuku with ADB-level privileges. An experimental root fallback is also included.

Is the POCO X8 Pro Max supported?

The POCO X8 Pro Max, also known as Redmi Turbo 5 Max, shares the same RGB ring hardware and has been confirmed working by users. Other POCO models are not guaranteed.

Ready when you are

Make the back of your phone speak.

Download Aura, enable the back light effects in HyperOS and start building your own notification language.

POCO X8 Pro, X8 Pro Max (Redmi Turbo 5 Max) only. Aura drives the rear RGB ring, which only the Xiaomi/HyperOS family exposes: on any other phone, no notification lights anything up, with or without Shizuku.
