During the HarmoniOS ecosystem development event, Huawei’s Device Cloud president announced that the HarmoniOS Next software system marks the second stage of development. By the end of 2024, the company expects an additional 5,000 native apps to hit the HarmonyOS App Store.
Huawei plans to partner with educational institutions and train more than 100,000 developers every month to stimulate the HarmonyOS app ecosystem, among other initiatives.
Looking ahead, Huawei expects to exceed 500,000 native apps for HarmonyOS in the near future. For reference, Apple’s App Store hit 1.78 million apps in 2022, so Huawei’s App Store still has a long way to go.
HarmonyOS NEXT comes with a new UI and its own UI toolkit, SDK and compiler, making it the first release of HarmonyOS that has nothing to do with Android, according to the company.
