Huawei's HarmonyOS system has attracted much attention since its inception and is seen as a bright spot in China's technology sector. Prior to this, there was no mobile operating system in China that could achieve such an achievement. The HarmonyOS system is not only an operating system for mobile devices, but also an operating system for the Internet of Things, bringing more possibilities to China's technology industry. U.S. restrictions on Huawei have made it impossible to use Google's Android operating system and related services, prompting Huawei to start developing its own operating system to reduce its dependence on external technology.
Launched from 2019 1Version 0 to 4Version 0, the HarmonyOS system continues to grow and develop, the number of users and the number of devices continue to grow, and an ecosystem dominated by HarmonyOS has been formed. The HarmonyOS system not only supports smartphones and tablets, but also covers a variety of devices such as smart watches and smart home devices, allowing users to seamlessly switch and share data between different devices.
In 2023, HarmonyOS was successfully selected into the list of the world's top ten engineering achievements released by the Chinese Academy of Engineering and other units, which is also a high recognition of its influence and innovation ability. The launch of the HarmonyOS system fills the gap in the field of operating systems in China, and has better security and autonomous controllability. Huawei's Yu Chengdong announced the full launch of HarmonyOS native applications, and then more than 400 domestic manufacturers such as Meituan, Weibo, DingTalk, Alipay, and miHoYo announced cooperation with Huawei to start the development of HarmonyOS native applications.
Huawei will also increase its efforts to promote the HarmonyOS system and work closely with partners from various industries to promote the adaptation of more applications and services to the HarmonyOS system. Under the HarmonyOS system ecosystem, millions of jobs are expected to be formed in China, providing users with richer and more diverse application choices. It is expected that during 2024, the HarmonyOS system will be hard isolated from the Android system, and the native app version of the HarmonyOS system will no longer support opening Android apps.
In China, some top manufacturers have also announced the start of the development of native applications to provide service guarantee for HarmonyOS users. As a result, HarmonyOS is gradually evolving from a technological achievement to a global leader in the field of engineering, opening up new opportunities and challenges for China's technology industry. The rise of the HarmonyOS system not only marks a solid step forward in the field of operating systems in China, but also demonstrates Huawei's breakthrough progress in technological innovation. The future Hongmeng era has quietly come, and its development will lead us into a new era of intelligent life.
With the continuous improvement and promotion of the HarmonyOS system, it is believed that it will work side by side with Android and iOS to bring a more colorful technological experience to users around the world. Huawei's HarmonyOS system is not only a technological innovation, but also a demonstration of China's scientific and technological strength, and we look forward to the HarmonyOS system continuing to write its own brilliant chapter in the future.
