Huawei is ready to step foot into PC app market with AppGallery
For applications, Huawei has its own AppGallery just like Google Play Store, which features a number of selected Android applications. It was reported that Huawei’s AppGallery is stepped into the PC app market to fulfill PC software and app requirements but yet to announce officially.
Currently, there are mainly two computer operating systems are available Windows and Mac OS. The Windows OS application store is extremely slow and doesn’t available to fully satisfied the users or we can say it is half dead. The Mac OS has its own App Store, which is much better and free from the virus while app downloading.
Now, Huawei has its own Application market that is available for smartphones as well as for PC that covers home ground as well as global markets. However, Huawei can launch the AppGallery exclusively for Huawei devices, but the company made it open for all Windows computers and released the installation package for now under testing and plans to release it very soon.
