Reported details
Xiaomi EV has opened recruitment for the second vehicle-assistant app beta. IT Home’s Qincang reported at 11:09 on October 26 that all owners may apply, but participants will be screened using application information; selection notices are planned by November 2. Applying successfully is not admission to the test. Results can be checked via in-app messages, SMS or My Activities in the app.
Reported capabilities focus on conversational app interaction: checking vehicle status, immediate or scheduled controls, creating Xiaomi Super Tasks, and summarising driving style and remembering usage habits. The feature remains under testing and iteration. This round requires no vehicle-system upgrade; admitted users follow instructions for the Xiaomi EV beta app. It is not a vehicle-firmware OTA or proof of access for every owner.
Editorial interpretation
Editorial view: applicants should confirm admission and app version rather than seek unofficial vehicle update packages. For scheduled controls, check the target, execution time and permission prompts; a natural-language request is not proof that a vehicle action has completed. The report provides no complete model/version feature matrix, privacy-retention period or general-release date. None follows from recruitment being open to all owners.
What it means
Recruitment and capabilities are attributed to IT Home; the official activity link is provided as an additional source. Only its application shell was readable, so complete terms are not claimed independently checked. Existing official YU7 model reference does not establish feature eligibility. No functional testing.
