Recently, I don't know if you have seen it, many manufacturers have expressed their support for Hongmeng and want to develop Hongmeng native applications, including Xiaohongshu, WeChat, Alipay, miHoYo, Meituan, Ctrip and so on.
Why do these manufacturers say they want to develop the HarmonyOS version?Because next year Huawei will launch a HarmonyOS Next version, this version is no longer compatible with Android APP, you can only use HarmonyOS APP, it is really Huawei's 100% self-developed system.
If these vendors' applications want to be used in HarmonyOS Next, they must develop a dedicated version of HarmonyOS.
After all, the current smart phone, it is important not only to play the best function, but a variety of Internet applications, because the smart phone is already a mobile Internet terminal, the app is crucial, and the smart phone without the app is a feature machine.
And once these Internet giants develop a special version of HarmonyOS, it will be a big deal for Google, which means that HarmonyOS will officially start hollowing out Android.
We know that when Huawei HarmonyOS was first launched, it had no ecology and could only be compatible with Android apps to develop the ecosystem.
Then this has no impact on Google, after all, ecology is the key to an operating system, and Hongmeng without ecology is just a toothless tiger, which is not to be feared.
Even now, Huawei's own HarmonyOS ecosystem is not perfect, and there are only about 100 real pure-blooded HarmonyOS apps, which is not enough to support Internet applications, so Google doesn't care at all.
What Hongmeng has become the third in the world, and what share is more than 2%, does not pose a threat to Google, because the ecology is still Android, then Hongmeng is the little brother of Android.
But if Huawei Hongmeng has its own ecology and is completely cut off from Android, of course Google is unwilling to see it, it is truly self-contained, separated from Android.
But Google is unwilling and can't stop it, after all, Huawei's Hongmeng system has nothing to do with Android, and it is an independent system that belongs to Huawei.
In August 2019, Huawei released HarmonyOS 1Version 0 and then June 2021, harmonyos 20 was officially released for mobile phones, but these versions are dependent on Android, and Huawei is copying Android.
It wasn't until the start of this HarmonyOS Next that Huawei began to hollow out Android and completely turn the Android ecosystem into its own, a process that took more than 4 years.
I wonder how long it will take Huawei to hollow out Android and finally defeat Android after the launch of HarmonyOS NextLet's wait and see.
