Ever wanted your Xiaomi, Redmi, or POCO phone to look and feel like an iPhone? With the right HyperOS theme, you can get surprisingly close no root, no custom ROM, no complicated modifications required. One theme that has been gaining serious attention in the HyperOS customization community is Liuli OS27, a beautifully crafted iOS 27-inspired theme that transforms nearly every aspect of your phone's interface.
This hands-on review and guide is based on practical experience testing Liuli OS27 on HyperOS 3. We'll cover everything: what changes, what stays the same, how to install it (it uses the backup/.bug theme format), and whether it truly delivers that "iPhone look" you're after. Whether you have a flagship Xiaomi, a mid-range Redmi Note, or a budget POCO, this theme is designed to work across the entire HyperOS 3 ecosystem.
Important transparency note (E-E-A-T): Liuli OS27 is a third-party community theme, not an official Xiaomi product. It is distributed in the backup/ bug.bug theme format, which requires a specific installation method (explained below). Always download themes from trusted sources to avoid malware or modified system files.
What is the Liuli OS27 Theme?
Liuli OS27 is a custom HyperOS theme that recreates the look and feel of Apple's iOS interface on your Xiaomi/Redmi/POCO device. It is designed to be simple and minimalist while still looking premium and polished. The theme name references iOS 27 styling, bringing the latest iOS design language to HyperOS 3.
Unlike many themes that only change icons and wallpaper, Liuli OS27 is a comprehensive system-level theme that modifies multiple core UI elements from the Settings app to the dial pad and Control Center.
What Does Liuli OS27 Change?
1. App Icons (iOS Style)
The most immediately noticeable change. All system and third-party app icons are restyled to match the iOS aesthetic: rounded squares with subtle gradients and shadows, just like on an iPhone. The icon mask is applied consistently across apps, giving the home screen a uniform, premium look.
2. Settings Interface Redesign
The Settings app gets a full iOS-style makeover: a cleaner layout, iOS-style toggle switches, updated typography, and refined spacing. Navigating settings feels noticeably more like iOS.
3. Dial Pad Redesign
The phone dialer is redesigned with iOS-style number buttons and call screen layout. Even the in-call UI gets the iOS treatment.
4. Glass Effect Control Center
One of the standout features: the Control Center is transformed with a glass effect (glassmorphism), translucent, blurred panels that look modern and premium. This is the kind of visual upgrade that makes your phone feel like a flagship device.
5. Customizable Lock Screen
Liuli OS27 includes a fully customizable lock screen:
- Change lock screen widgets: add, remove, and rearrange widgets
- Adjust clock size:e make the lock screen clock larger or smaller
- Change clock font color: match your wallpaper or personal style
- Built-in wallpapers: many included wallpaper options to choose from
- Depth effect support:t wallpapers support the iOS-style depth effect where the clock appears behind the subject of your photo
6. Dynamic Island Support
The theme includes support for Dynamic Island (Hyper Island) style notifications, bringing the iPhone 15 Pro-style interactive pill to your HyperOS device.

Liuli OS27 is perfect for you if:
- You love the clean, minimalist iOS look but prefer Android/HyperOS hardware
