HarmonyOS New Features: Easier to use and smarter than ever

Huawei’s HarmonyOS supports a Multi-device interaction that changes working across multiple devices as simple as controlling one. The new Control Panel supports simple and intuitive connections through a drag-and-integrate feature that allows users to freely connect the devices they want to be based on specific scenarios.

Let’s learn it via example, whenever you are free and thinking to watch movie at home late at night, all you have to do is open up the Control Panel and drag the smart screen icon to your phone icon, and the movie jumps directly from your phone to the TV. If you’re wearing your HUAWEI FreeBuds 4, you can then drag the earphone icon to the phone icon, at which point the movie will play on your smart screen while rerouting its sound through your FreeBuds. This is just one example of the Super Device experience.

According to the latest OS test, HarmonyOS 2’s new Task Center allows apps to travel between different devices at will without installing them on each and every one. On any device that’s part of a Super Device system, you can see the tasks running on all other devices.

If you want a bigger display for mobile gaming, you can simply swipe up and hover to bring up the Overview Screen, and then transfer the game to your HUAWEI MatePad Pro to continue the fun.

The new HarmonyOS Home Screen is more streamlined and organized than ever. You can swipe up on apps to generate Service Widgets that display real-time, easy-to-access information or services without having to open the app itself. You can customize the size of the Service Widgets, tap apps and swipe up to display their widgets and tap any vacant location on the home screen to hide them.

The specially designed HarmonyOS Sans font and natural Gravitational Animations offer a consistent user experience across all HarmonyOS devices.

HarmonyOS: Privacy and Security

After many reviews and video opinions, it was found that the latest Huawei’s HarmonyOS 2 runs even more smoothly than the last generation of EMUI. A HarmonyOS 2 phone can maintain read/write speeds similar to those of a new phone after 36 months of use, even with very little storage still available on the device.

  • HarmonyOS 2 keeps opened apps running in the background so that your tasks are always available where you left off.
  • Return to the last action or page on a given app even if you have dozens of other apps open.
  • You can enjoy a longer battery life with a HarmonyOS 2-based device.
  • When multi-device collaborative identity authentication is activated, users can only unlock their phones with a combination of facial recognition on their smartphone and a special check that ensures that the user’s watch is the one that’s connected to the phone.
  • HarmonyOS manages user data by category and protects devices by level, setting specific security thresholds for Super Devices.

“We are surrounded by more and more smart devices these days, and are now in a world where all things are connected,” said Richard Yu, Executive Director and CEO of Huawei’s Consumer Business Group. “Every single one of us is a part of this fully connected world, as is every device. We look forward to working with more partners and developers to build a thriving HarmonyOS ecosystem and provide even better experiences, products, and services to our customers the world over.

Note: Users who want to try out the new OS sooner can submit an application at the Huawei Club or on the My Huawei app, or sign up for the HarmonyOS Experience Officer Program in any of Huawei’s 66 offline experience stores in China.
