Huawei Releases HUAWEI AppGallery’s Vision To Build A Secure And Reliable Mobile Apps Ecosystem
· Huawei’s vision is to make HUAWEI AppGallery an
open, innovative app distribution platform that is accessible to consumers.
· Huawei aims to strictly protect users’ privacy and
security while providing them with a unique and smart experience.
The gradual proliferation of 5G means a
revolutionised mobile experience. Increasingly, consumers are using multiple
devices in various scenarios and mobile apps are key to that ever richer,
hyperconnected experience. As such, Huawei believes that demand for smarter
apps will only increase and they want to be at the forefront to enable this
massive change.
Enter HUAWEI AppGallery – the official app
distribution platform of Huawei, providing a new alternative to its users. As a
top 3 app marketplace globally, HUAWEI AppGallery is now available in over 170
countries/regions with 400 million monthly active users (MAUs), covering
mainstream apps and services worldwide.
Vision of a Top 3 App Marketplace Globally
Huawei has hundreds of millions of users worldwide,
laying a solid foundation for the development of the ecosystem. Together with
HMS Core, which opens a variety of Huawei software and hardware capabilities,
Huawei is enroute to providing the best and innovative application experience
for users.
For a brand that rose sharply to rank 10th
place Brand Finance's 2020 annual global brand value ranking, nothing seems
impossible. In fact, Huawei has invested in more than 3,000 engineers on
ecosystem engineering. The brand also provides one-stop operational support for
developers worldwide, as well as funding such as the “Shining-Star” program to
incentivise innovation.
HUAWEI AppGallery Is A Trusted Platform Where Users
Can Download Apps
HUAWEI AppGallery comes with full-cycle security and
protection, including developer real-name verification and four-step review
process for secure app operation. All apps go through a stringent verification
test to prevent developers’ apps from malicious activity. It has an age-rating
system to create a safe environment for children, filtering out apps that are
not suitable for their age range.
AppGallery deploys the highest level of verification
to isolate and protect users’ sensitive data and privacy. Personally-sensitive
information – such as biometric data – will never be processed outside the
Huawei device, giving the user complete control over their personal data[1]. EMUI lets users
have control over app user permission. More importantly, all user data is also
anonymised and stored locally, corresponding to each user’s region.
HUAWEI AppGallery is the destination for quality apps
for Huawei device users.
Huawei is continuously working on increasing the
selection of top apps that have become a staple of its users’ digital
lifestyle, including both popular global applications and quality localised
applications our users have come to love and depend on. HUAWEI AppGallery
segments applications across 18 categories, including news, social media,
entertainment and more, all searchable with a simple and smooth browsing
experience. If there’s an app users can’t find, all they have to do is submit
the desired app name to a ‘Wishlist’. Once this app goes on-shelf, the user who
submitted it via ‘Wishlist’ will be notified.
Huawei is also committed to creating the best user
experience by providing quality apps. In its latest content partnership, Huawei
has collaborated with News UK ,
one of the UK
“I think this is a really good long-term partnership
we can have with Huawei. I feel there’s a lot more innovation we can do and
really drive forward amazing customer experiences on that devices,” said
Christina Scott, Chief Technology Officer of News UK
HUAWEI AppGallery offers apps optimised to work on
Huawei devices, for an innovative and smart experience
Apps downloaded from HUAWEI AppGallery are optimized
to work on Huawei devices, providing incredible on-device capability. The key
enabler is HUAWEI HiAI, an open AI capability platform for smart devices, which
pools software and hardware resources from different devices and facilitates
collaborative, mutually-reinforcing interactions between them.
For example, the WPS Office app uses the HiAI
intelligent recognition capability to achieve super-resolution optical
character recognition to recognise text in images such as scanned documents and
photos. The in-app documents are automatically detected and corrected, greatly
improving productivity.
HUAWEI AppGallery introduces a tap-to-use and
installation-free experience with ‘Quick Apps’
Quick Apps is an app ecosystem that houses a new type
of installation-free apps. It provides a good user experience, powerful
functions and automatic updates for HTML5 pages, but consumes very little
memory space. Despite giving users the same experience as native apps, Quick
Apps are written with only 1/5 amount of codes as compared to that of Android
apps, therefore taking up less memory space. Users can accommodate more than
2,000 Quick Apps instead of just 20 native apps with just 1GB of space.
Users can even add their favourite Quick Apps to
their desktops for convenient access. Quick Apps are used on over 350 million
Huawei phones. To date, there are more than 1,700 Quick Apps released globally,
a 200% growth year-on-year.
To keep up the pace with 5G, Quick App will be
gradually rolled out to more countries and regions, opening China
Huawei will continue its efforts in building the HMS
Ecosystem and HUAWEI AppGallery to bring to life all-scenario smart life
experience to Huawei users. Do stay tuned for more updates.
