Hy. I am on MIUI 14.0.2.0 TLCCNXM Stable, my device is Xiaomi 12.

I use WiFiman to scan surounding WiFi networks but it does not see any networks. I tried WiFi analyzer too with same result. I know it has something with location permisions but I have given them to both apps with no result.

Any suggestions?

Solved!

Settings -> Privacy protection -> Protection tab -> Privacy protection lab -> enable "Approximate location".
You should now see the relevant setting in "Get location info".

Then: Long-tap app icon -> App info -> Permissions -> Get location info -> tap "Approximate location is on" to turn it off.
