Method 1: Disabling Ads by Turning Off the MSA Application
The primary culprit behind ads on your Poco X6 Pro is the MSA (MIUI System Ads) process. This process collects data about your usage habits and utilizes it to target ads that align with your preferences.

- Open Settings on your Poco X6 Pro.
- Navigate to the “Passwords & security” section.
- Select the “Authorization & revocation” option.
- Now disable “MSA”. (You need to turn on the internet connection)
- A pop-up window will appear. Wait for the countdown to complete.
- Then tap “Revoke” to confirm.
- Also, disable “GetApps” from the list.
Once you have turned off the MSA application, you should see a significant reduction in ads on your Poco X6 Pro. You may still see a few ads from time to time, but they should be much less intrusive.
