The key to a smartphone platform is its application ecosystem, Huawei now also has its operating system called HarmonyOS, which also appeared after Huawei devices were blocked by an American company so that they could no longer use the Android operating system.
It works smoothly and without major problems. Huawei recently announced that 134,000 applications are available for its new platform to date and more than 4 million developers have signed up.
This number is impressive because if you look at just one application per developer, it means that at least 4 million applications can already be installed on smartphones.
HarmonyOS is Huawei's answer to Google's Android operating system. Huawei is caught in the middle of the current US-China trade war that has resulted in Huawei ceasing to use Google services for its smartphones, a condition that has also forced Huawei to develop alternatives, including its mobile platform , to start.
It is expected to be more than just a smartphone platform. Huawei envisioned that this operating system could be used for all types of smart devices such as smart TVs, smart appliances, and more.
