harmonyos 3.1 features harmonyos 3.0

Recently, Huawei started releasing a new software update for the HarmonyOS 3 smartphones. Given the fact that this is no ordinary update, it has a bunch of new features. we’ve now come to an understanding that these new additions belong to HarmonyOS 3.1 and come directly to HarmonyOS 3.0 without a major change in the build version.

Huawei has already installed this update in its flagship. While more are preparing to catch this upgrade next month. Yet, the new feature package weighs only over 1GB.

How to identify this as a HarmonyOS 3.1 update? Well, the changes in this update were tested within HarmonyOS 3.1 developer beta. Also, the stable release with the Huawei P60 series also mentions such a feature.

However, we still don’t have an official confirmation, of whether Huawei has planned a separate HarmonyOS 3.1 rollout.

App Guard

  • Improves App Guard for enhanced security. When an app tries to redirect you to another app, a pop-up will appear to ask for your permission.

These features for HarmonyOS 3.0 devices swiftly suit for a half-yearly update and we can call it a non-versioned HarmonyOS 3.1 release.
