Mobile apps have become indispensable in daily life
But increased convenience puts sensitive user data at risk
HMS Core Safety Detect offers unique protections
For comprehensive app security with little effort!
What Is Safety Detect?
Safety Detect is an open multi-dimensional security detection service offered by Huawei, that helps developers bolster app security capabilities, based on the Trusted Execution Environment (TEE) on Huawei phones, without compromising user experience.
System Integrity Check (SysIntegrity)
SysIntegrity is capable of checking whether the user device is rooted, unlocked, or escalated for higher permissions, and uses this information to help you determine how and when to restrict your app's behavior to avoid potential leaking of sensitive user information or financial information.
A unique advantage of SysIntegrity is that it is based on the TEE OS, which is built into every Huawei phone (running EMUI 9.0 or later). The TEE OS comes with Huawei's in-house microkernel, which has achieved the prestigious CC EAL 5+ certification, and is the first solution of its kind to pass formal verification. Having integrated SysIntegrity, it can isolate apps for bolstered protection, and provide independent privacy security protection services. For example, services with high security requirements, such as the payment services, are provided with the appropriate level of protection in the TEE OS.
App Security Check (AppsCheck)
When your app has integrated AppsCheck, it can obtain a list of malicious apps on the user's device, which provides a strong basis for high-level risk analysis (for risky/virus-infected apps). Users are then warned of the presence of any risks on your app, or prompted to exit your app. According to the three largest global virus evaluation agencies, AppsCheck can detect malicious apps with a staggering accuracy rate of 99%.
Malicious URL Check (URLCheck)
With URLCheck, your app can determine whether a visited URL contains phishing or malware apps. The check strikes the optimal balance between performance and timeliness, and is capable of detecting a wide range of malicious URLs, such as phishing and Trojan-infested URLs. URLCheck is easy to integrate into your app, and provides trusted, operation-free security services, reducing the costs associated with developing secure browsing services.
Fake User Detection (UserDetect)
Fake user detection is critical for app operations, as the presence of fake operations such as game bots, activity bonus hunting, and malicious spamming, can give your app a bad reputation. UserDetect can identify spoofed devices, based on the device signature and identifier, and identity relevant environmental risks, such as roots, simulators, VMs, device change tools, and anonymous IP addresses. It can also recognize fake users based on screen touch and sensor behavior, as well as prevent batch registration, credential stuffing attacks, bonus hunting, and content crawlers. These safeguards provide your app's users with unmatched peace of mind.
Many popular apps have integrated Safety Detect, such as the app for the Sputnik media outlet in Russia, APUS, a popular browser in India and Southeast Asia, and 1998 Camera in Vietnam.
How Can I Integrate HUAWEI Safety Detect?
Each of the four functions in Safety Detect has a dedicated API that is easy to integrate. For guidance during the integration process, please refer to the HUAWEI Developers website, where you will find the integration guide and other resources for reference, or you can contact us through [email protected] for further technical assistance.

Thanks to HUAWEI HiAI, Huawei’s artificial intelligence capability, AppGallery users can enjoy crisper images and a cleaner news-reading experience when using the newly listed RT app.
Russia Today (RT), the Russian global news TV channel, has released its app on AppGallery, giving Huawei smartphone users access to one of the world’s leading news sources.
RT is a round-the-clock news network and multi-media outlet with a truly global audience. Boasting eight TV channels, the network also offers digital platforms in six different languages and broadcasts to a weekly viewership of 100 million in 47 of the 100+ countries where RT is available. RT is the first TV news network to reach 10 billion views on YouTube.
The app allows users to get the latest updates on breaking and developing stories, browse articles on a range of issues from around the world, and watch the latest video news content.
Listing on AppGallery will help RT reach new readers and viewers across AppGallery’s 420 million monthly active users and the 170 countries and regions it’s available in.
“We live in an increasingly global and interconnected world, and technology should be used to keep people well-connected and even better informed. Having RT available on AppGallery provides a great opportunity for people around the world to keep up-to-date with the most important global issues and developments,” Anna Belkina, RT’s Deputy Editor in Chief, said.
Listing with AppGallery also enabled RT to bring users a truly superior news experience, by integrating Huawei’s innovative artificial intelligence capability, HUAWEI HiAI. HUAWEI HiAI is a three-layer open platform that integrates device, chip, and the cloud to deliver optimized experiences for users, and enables developers to create more intelligent and powerful apps. On the RT app, HUAWEI HiAI enables on-device processing to improve image resolution by up to nine times, even when the user is in an area with poor network coverage.
“If you’re browsing the internet in an area with poor connectivity, such as on the subway or in an office building, you often find pictures don’t load properly or aren’t clear. Downloading the RT app through AppGallery ensures the app will be integrated with HUAWEI HiAI, meaning users will enjoy a cleaner interface and better browsing experience,” Anna Belkina said.
On top of this, the HUAWEI HiAI technology helps reduce storage and network traffic, as the images that are transferred to Huawei devices are compressed at a high ratio and can later be decompressed.
RT’s app also integrates several of Huawei’s other innovative chip, device and cloud capabilities to ensure users are given the best possible news experience. For example, Huawei’s Analytics Kit provides useful insights and real-time data on user behavior and monitors app performance, allowing RT to better analyze how people are consuming news and enabling RT to meet users’ needs in a constantly evolving news market. Other kits integrated on the RT app include the Push Kit, which enables instant messaging about updates and notifications, and the Ads kit, which helps ensure ads are high quality and personalized, and therefore less intrusive.
Huawei constantly works on collaborations with the world’s top app developers to create quality apps, and RT’s is one of the latest of over 60,000 apps that have utilized Huawei’s advanced technologies and on-device capabilities to deliver superior services and enhanced user experiences.
All applications developed in collaboration with Huawei, along with thousands of other quality apps, are available on Huawei’s open and secure app distribution platform, AppGallery. As one of the top three app marketplaces globally, AppGallery connects 650 million users to Huawei’s smart and innovative ecosystem.

For example, the WPS Office app uses the HiAI intelligent recognition capability to achieve super-resolution optical character recognition to recognize text in images such as scanned documents and photos. The in-app documents are automatically detected and corrected, greatly improving productivity.
HUAWEI AppGallery introduces a tap-to-use and installation-free experience with ‘Quick Apps’
Quick Apps is an app ecosystem that houses a new type of installation-free apps. It provides a good user experience, powerful functions, and automatic updates for HTML5 pages, but consumes very little memory space. Despite giving users the same experience as native apps, Quick Apps are written with only 1/5 amount of codes as compared to that of Android apps, therefore taking up less memory space. Users can accommodate more than 2000 Quick Apps instead of just 20 native apps with just 1GB of space.
Users can even add their favorite Quick Apps to their desktops for convenient access. Quick Apps are used on over 350 million Huawei phones. To date, there are more than 1,700 Quick Apps released globally.
To keep up the pace with 5G, Quick App will be gradually rolled out to more countries and regions, opening China market’s mature Quick App standards and IDE development tools to global developers. All developers across the world are welcomed to publish Quick App to jointly deliver tap-to-use and installation-free experience to users.
Huawei will continue its efforts in building the HMS Ecosystem and HUAWEI AppGallery to bring to life all-scenario smart life experience to Huawei users. Do stay tuned for more updates. For more information on HUAWEI AppGallery, visit https://consumer.huawei.com/en/mobileservices/appgallery/

How to improve monetization while continuing to acquire users? All of these challenges, and many others, are addressed at the AppGallery Connect Academy · Live event, offering actionable insights on how to grow your app business to new levels.
Partner with AppGallery Connect to grow your business, by harnessing global app distribution and broad-based device support.
As a top-3 global app marketplace, HUAWEI AppGallery provides access to a wide variety of both global and locally-oriented apps across 18 app categories and has attracted over 530 million MAU in 170+ countries and regions by the end of 2020.
In order to continuously provide quality and safe app experience for users, AppGallery has launched AppGallery Connect, a one-stop app service platform that empowers developers' app creativity and business growth. As of the end of 2020, AppGallery Connect had already partnered with 2.3 million developers across the globe, facilitating 384 billion app distributions on AppGallery in 2020 alone.
A/B Testing: Conduct group experiments to determine the best variant for your app.
A/B Testing enables you to make informed operations decisions based on specific data. It conducts group experiments to determine user preferences related to UI design, written content, and product functions. A/B Testing does not directly boost user activity, but its experiment results help you determine user preferences, and improve indicators such as DAU and MAU.
In one notable example, an app team split users into two groups to determine whether a new function could facilitate user engagement. This function was only made available to one group. Two weeks later, the daily active duration of users in the treatment group was half an hour longer than that for users in the control group. In light of this, the team ultimately decided to release the function, and was proven correct, as the daily user activity duration rose by 15%.
Remote Configuration: Change how your app looks and works, without requiring users to update the app.
Sleep Sounds is an app that provides lullabies and natural white noise to help users fall asleep with greater ease. The Sleep Sounds team utilized AppGallery Connect Remote Configuration to make changes to their app, while also avoiding the need to release a new version. The team simply made changes on the cloud, and the changes took effect on the app side. This enabled Sleep Sounds to make targeted recommendations to users based on their local market, age, gender, and other attributes, upon obtaining the user's consent. Just two weeks into using the service, Sleep Sounds saw an 8% increase in its number of users, and a 10% increase in user engagement.
App Linking: Provide a consistent link access across platforms and versions, for higher conversion rates.
App Linking helps you create deep links for in-app content, and display them across a wide range of channels, including those on social media. By tapping a link, the user can directly access the in-app content. Those users who have not installed the app will be redirected to HUAWEI AppGallery for download and installation.
For example, if you are planning a promotion in your app, App Linking can help you place the promotional link on a diverse range of ad platforms. Existing users can then launch the app and open the specific page with just a tap; new users will be redirected to AppGallery to download and install the app, and then to the specific promotional page upon launching the app.
Linking premium in-app content enables you to convert mobile web users into native app users, which provides a way to grow your user base. App Linking also supports tracing parameters, which means that you can view data analysis and trace traffic sources across different channels.
App Messaging: Send contextual messages to engage users.
With the Call Screen app, users can choose from a range of customized incoming call skins, some of which have visual alerts to ensure that important calls aren't missed. But the developer found that some of the new skins they had released were not being downloaded by very many users, and reviews of the skin were mixed. To address this, the developer used the App Messaging service in AppGallery Connect to notify users of new available skins, after obtaining their consent. Now, when a user signs in, Call Screen provides them with skin recommendations based on their preferences. The service helped increase the number of app users by 11% in just three weeks.
