This is macOS' gatekeeper (no idea why apple thought it's a good idea to show such a misleading error). It blocks all downloaded apps which are not signed, so the only real solution is to give Apple 100$ to buy "trust" :(

Solution 1

Open it using either Right Mouse Button Click -> Open or Control^ + Mouse Button Click -> Open, or try the next solution:

Works for both cases:

• "Mi Home Toolkit" cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.
• "Mi Home Toolkit" can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.

Solution 2

Execute this command in the terminal:

xattr -cr "Mi Home Toolkit.app" 

Works for the cases mentioned above and this:

• "Mi Home Toolkit" is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Bin.
