Huawei’s in-house HarmonyOS leaves Android apps behind.
HarmonyOS Next can only run apps specifically developed for it, the company announced today as it released a developer preview ahead of its Q4 release, South China Morning Post reports. It’s a big shift for HarmonyOS, which has maintained some level of compatibility with Android software since its launch in 2019 even as US sanctions prevented Huawei from using Google’s full-fat Android. Huawei also appears to have overcome sanctions preventing access to high-end chips.
