Seamless comparison shopping with App Multiplier and Multi-Window
The HUAWEI Mate Xs has received widespread acclaim upon being launched, and embodies Huawei's full-fledged commitment to across-the-board innovation, which integrates cutting-edge technology, pioneering design principles, and an emphasis on quality. Huawei also unveiled China's first foldable device app ecosystem, which endows a diverse range of apps with an enhanced split screen view, and optimally convenient multi-tasking capabilities.
Among apps targeted for foldable devices, shopping apps demonstrate perhaps the most benefit for users, as they support a myriad of highly convenient scenarios, allow users to compare two products side-by-side on the same screen, or continue chatting with friends while shopping, taking full advantage of the foldable large-screen.

Initial app ecosystem for the HUAWEI Mate Xs
Hassle-free comparison shopping
By integrating App Multiplier, shopping apps on the HUAWEI Mate Xs make comparison shopping, undoubtedly one of the most tedious aspects of e-commerce, remarkably easy. It frees shoppers from the hassle of switching pages, and even apps, to find the right product at the right price.
Comparison shopping with App Multiplier
Thanks to the expansive screen and multi-tasking mode, shopping apps on the HUAWEI Mate Xs allow for easy price comparisons for products from different vendors, and even from different platforms. The side-by-side view saves users significant time and effort, helping them find desired products in the most efficient possible manner.
Comparison shopping with Multi-Window
Users can also keep the product home page on one side of the screen, and scroll down to view the product details and user comments on the "secondary screen."
Thanks to the unique attributes of App Multiplier, the HUAWEI Mate Xs provides a laptop or tablet-reminiscent multi-window mode, with seamless touch, swipe, and gesture-based operations that streamline every aspect of online shopping.
Chat and share while shopping
If users wish to discuss or share a product with friends or family, Multi-Window allows for simultaneous chatting and shopping, by keeping the shopping and chat screens in different side-by-side windows. This prevents shopping from being interfered with, or interrupted by instant messaging. Furthermore, product links can be quickly shared, for enhanced multi-tasking efficiency.
Side-by-side shopping and chatting on the HUAWEI Mate Xs
Users also can also watch other videos while shopping. With Multi-Window, the screen can display a shopping app and a short video app such as TikTok at the same time, making multi-tasking riveting in new ways.
Two apps displayed side by side via Multi-Window
App Multiplier and Multi-Window on the HUAWEI Mate Xs makes online shopping new and invigorating, providing for easy comparison shopping, simultaneous chatting and shopping, and video playback while shopping. In the future, an even greater range of apps will be adapted for foldable devices, unlocking engaging, and interactive features that enrich every facet of daily life.

“Integrating Huawei's capability kits into unlocks some of the most innovative mobile technology available and enables Perfect World to redefine what's possible in the mobile gaming experience.”—Robert H. Xiao, CEO of Perfect World
Robert also expressed that the mobile gaming industry is now one of the fastest-growing industries and farmers are increasingly looking for new and unique features. “Technology such as Huawei’s face AR, foldable screen technology, and multi-device casting allows players to enjoy truly special gameplay experiences,” Robert said, “Partnership with AppGallery provides a great opportunity to expand our growing user base.”
The adventure game “ReEvolve” is Perfect World’s first sandbox mobile game that involves players partnering with one another to explore a virtual world and enjoy a series of fun and interactive social gameplays. Huawei’s foldable full view display on the Mate Xs gives players full use of larger screen space, helping facilitate special features such as enabling players to build their homeland from ‘God’s perspective’. It is also worth mentioning that ReEvolve allows split-screen mode on the Mate Xs, where players can “build” in the lower screen, while the upper screen brings a top-down view, helping players get a better view of the whole situation. “Huawei has used its distributed capability to help developers like us, facilitating multi-terminal game playing, which exactly coincides with our expectation,” says Robert.
Having integrated with Huawei’s face augmented reality (AR) technology into the products, mobile games are brought to life to offer a superior experience. Perfect World has made lots of attempts to render fabulous AR effects to immerse gamers in an unprecedented game experience: it has reached an agreement with Huawei in the technology of Face AR, using the front camera of player’s smartphones to scan players’ facial position and posture, topological structure and expression and integrate these features into gameplay.
Perfect World was the first Chinese gaming company to pioneer the independent development of 3D game engines. Now as a global game developer, the company has distributed mobile, console, VR, and cloud games to over 100 countries and regions. Perfect World has used HUAWEI HMS Service from very early days, to offer global users more choices in terms of connection and service.

According to Li Jianing, CEO of Jnotes, the main incentive to develop the Jnotes app was to provide users with a lifelike digital writing experience that supports their everyday habits. New advancements in network technology and smart devices (like phones, tablets, and watches) are commonplace, which is why many enterprises are adopting a smart office model. The Jnotes app is designed for a paperless society, presenting handwriting at maximum fidelity and minimal latency to fit users' requirements.
Li Jianing, CEO of Jnotes
Jnotes was established in 2019, recalled Jianing, and with a team of four. Since then, the app has been installed over 30 million times. Jianing says, "This achievement is part due to our continuous investment in advanced technologies, and part to our core focus on user experience". In addition to its excellent writing experience, Jnotes also provides a set of quality functions, such as handwriting duplication, PDF annotation, and image insert. These features make the app a perfect foundation to facilitate both work and studying, for any environment.
Jnotes team
Open capabilities from HMS Core have contributed to Jnotes' meteoric rise. For example, Pencil Engine. Its stroke estimate feature improves stroke efficiency and the writing experience. According to Jianing, "This feature helps narrow the distance from the handwriting to the stylus pen tip, and slash the writing latency." Now, writing is smooth as using pen and paper, conforming perfectly to common writing habits.
Another key feature was Drive Kit, which facilitates the synchronization function on the app. Jianing added, "Drive Kit allows users to check and edit their notes on different types of devices, making the app a premium tool for improving productivity".
Smooth writing experience from Jnotes
One core focus for the company was the need to quickly respond to users' requirements. In fact, this is one of the reasons why Jnotes stands out from the crowd. The app adopts Analytics Kit, which allows the support team to check vital operations data in AppGallery Connect — the Huawei platform designed for developers — to swiftly locate issues and make improvements. Jianing explains, "This helps stay on top of, and refine, our operations". This was especially useful when combined with user feedback, helping the company better equipped for the future.
Users' feedback from AppGallery Connect
At the 2021 Huawei HMS App Innovation Contest, Jnotes reaped the Best App award. For Jianing and her team, this was the recognition they dreamed, and encouraged the whole Jnotes team to keep pushing their limits.
AppsUP 2021 Best App
Each year, the app's user base grows bigger, meaning the Jnotes team will have to stay dedicated to improving its performance. The company will work with HMS Core to offer true-to-life, smooth writing experience.
