Huawei wearables will be able to install applications from other developers

Huawei Watch GT2 Pro

Huawei has shown in recent years that it knows how to make fantastic phones but that also, also know how to do smartwatches. However, its excellent track record in the phone market has been cut short by US government sanctions, not the smartwatch division.

In fact, during the last quarter of 2020, Huawei put into circulation more than 10 million smartwatchess. Huawei's watch application ecosystem is limited to the manufacturer's own applications, an important limitation that the Asian company has decided to eliminate.

Thanks to this, application developers will be able to port their applications to LiteOS, the operating system used by Huawei's smart watches. So far, Huawei did not allow the existence of third-party applications to prevent the fantastic battery life of their watches from being affected by applications that they do not control.

The first Huawei wearable affected by this decision is the Huawei GT 2Pro, a model that already has the Fifity application at its disposal, an application that offers more than 900 different workouts. In order to port applications to LiteOS, developers have to use a Huawei development kit, a kit that has already begun to be made available to the developer community.

According to Huawei

Huawei's goal is to provide full operational support for all application content providers, covering the entire cycle from creation, development and distribution to operation and data analysis.

Esto looks a lot like app incubation process that the Chinese company has undertaken to promote the AppGallery and the associated ecosystem.
