There are Online Selling (2025)reports suggesting that Huawei’s self-developed system, HarmonyOS, will no longer be compatible with Android next year. The iOS, Android, and HarmonyOS will be three independent operating systems, according to sources familiar with the matter. Huawei has not yet responded to this, but there are currently no plans to apply HarmonyOS to overseas smartphones, as reported by local media outlet Jiemian. Overseas consumers can continue to use Android applications with confidence on Huawei phones running EMUI, the previous Android-derived operating system, the report added. As of Oct. 30, 100 million devices upgraded to HarmonyOS 4, released on August 4, according to Huawei. [Jiemian, in Chinese]
