According to the report of the consulting organization, by 2025, the number of smart terminals held by the global consumer per capita will exceed 9, including mobile phone, tablet, large screen, PC, smart audio and other multi-form pan-terminals. Mobile will no longer be the only way to reach users, and users will no longer be able to enjoy all the services developers offer solely through mobile. The service development and experience improvement of the pan-terminal will become the primary opportunity and challenge faced by the application developers.
Similarly, the growth dividend for mobile-based applications is slowing. The number of monthly active users of mobile Internet applications has been increasing gradually since 18 years ago. Up to now, it has shown a trend of peaking, and the number of monthly active users remains at about 1.2 billion. However, in major industries such as games, travel, consumer finance, and life services, the user experience of a single device in the same industry is not very different, but the experience is similar, but the customer acquisition cost keeps rising compared to five years ago. Therefore, it is imperative for application developers to gradually develop applications for the full range of user scenarios in order to obtain more traffic and bring more revenue.
However, when developers start to develop applications, the different forms and capabilities of devices in all user scenarios bring great challenges and problems to developers. First of all, the form difference of applications on multiple devices causes a lot of development costs for developers, such as multi-terminal display of applications, landscape screen, portrait screen, bang screen, circular screen, folding screen and other special-shaped screens, as well as a variety of large, medium and small resolution adaptation. The second problem is the logical consistency of the interaction and input applied to multiple scenarios and devices. For example, when using the large screen, voice, touch, knob, keyboard, mouse and pen, the user definitely wants the input experience to be consistent and continuous, and the feedback based on different input methods is also consistent. Moreover, the configuration of different devices is different, small to 100 KB, large to a few GB of memory hardware, the main frequency of 100 M to G level of business platform, these differentiated equipment capabilities together, how to collaborative development, how to quickly improve the development efficiency has become a problem to continue to solve.
HarmonyOS provides an abstraction of the structure of UI information, combined with normalization of interaction events, allowing developers to quickly adapt the multi-display and interaction experience. The unified development API paradigm, including front-end framework, JS engine, UI components, etc., can realize multi-end collaboration and scalability.
As developers develop services across multiple devices based on HarmonyOS’s multi-end collaboration features, they need to combine the open capabilities of the HMS Core to innovate across the full spectrum of their business if they want to continue to create a differentiated experience that solves customer acquisition, activation, and conversion issues.
Here are some examples. In the news reading industry, it is critical to improve users’ reading perception to integrate the whole scene and multiple devices systematically to create a collaborative experience. Therefore, capability sharing among multiple channels and devices is very important. On the one hand, applications can reach users on different terminals through Huawei push service based on the needs of operation growth, and reasonable scenario-based content push can be carried out without disturbing users frequently. On the other hand, the application can build a good audio-visual experience based on the audio and video capabilities and services provided by the HMS Core, and use Huawei account services to quickly and securely log in to multiple terminals. Ai-related capabilities are the icing on the cake on the road to the transformation of the news reading industry. The feature of “marking words” on the tablet can improve the user’s “brushing” experience. The speaker improves the user’s “listening” experience based on the TTS capability provided by Huawei machine learning service. The “scan” of Huawei Search service and the “continuation” capability of HMS Core are relay operations between different devices during the reading process, which not only help developers build a smooth experience between different terminals of the application, but also greatly enrich users’ reading perception.
For developers in the e-commerce industry, first of all, massive traffic entrances, whether at the hardware and software level or at the system level, are needed to support the rapid coverage of e-commerce applications to various user groups. The whole process of application exposure, click, download, installation, opening, registration and activation can be realized through intelligent distribution to realize scenario-based transformation fission. The differentiated experience on these traffic entrances can greatly improve the conversion rate of e-commerce platforms. As a result, HarmonyOS ‘multiple traffic portals across multiple devices can improve app acquisition, while the HMS Core push service can help e-commerce platforms activate silent users across these multiple portals and keep users active. As AR Engine “try on” and “try”, “on”, “furniture wag of the see” scenarios and all kinds of virtual reality technologies such as machine learning services “photo to buy”, “code for”, “voice input” innovation ability can be greatly abundant electricity application in tablet, screen, the user experience on the whole scene equipment such as PC, Thus enhancing user conversion.
Applications in the sports and health industry require timely monitoring and reporting of sports data, including data integration of northbound applications and southbound fitness equipment. Based on the data synchronization of Huawei sports and health service, the exercise data can be presented more interestingly in different experience scenarios such as opening the application, running, watch and large screen.
Finally, the application of different industries in different devices for HarmonyOS open capacity requirements vary, tablet application development will focus on handwritten pen and video playback capability, application of watches need to reflect the sports and health data intelligence sharing, domestic application development is concerned in the advertisements on the screen and video copyright, etc. The opening capability of HMS Core in various fields in the continuous and vigorous development of Hongmeng Ecology, will continue to generate new and interesting scenarios, enabling the innovation of application development.
The combination of HarmonyOS, the next generation operating system, and HMS Core, the mobile infrastructure capability of choice for developers, is expected to accelerate app innovation, improve development efficiency, and create a full-scene, intelligent application experience for the HyperTerminal.
