Recently, I've been developing an educational app, and decided to integrate HUAWEI Scan Kit. I had integrated Zxing before. It only has one integration method. By contrast, there are several different ways to integrate HUAWEI Scan Kit. Which one should I choose? I thought that I'd share my experience with both Zxing and HUAWEI Scan Kit, and compare them, in case you might find the differences helpful during your development.
If you have ever used Zxing before, you've likely noticed how simple it is to integrate. The Zxing SDK can be integrated with only a few lines of code. This is because Zxing does not provide a UI, and lacks certain auxiliary functions, such as Auto Zoom and Flashlight On/Off. If you need any of those features, you'll need to develop them on your own.
Then there's HUAWEI Scan Kit, which can be integrated in multiple modes: Default View, Customized View, MultiProcessor, etc. The Default View mode provides a default UI, and a series of auxiliary functions such as Auto Zoom and Flashlight On/Off. If you can't be bothered to develop these functions by yourselves, I would suggest selecting the Default View mode.
In Customized View mode, you can customize the UI. Scan Kit only provides basic functions, like barcode scanning and decoding, and applies a blank layout. More advanced functions, like Flashlight On/Off, would need to be developed on your own, so the integration tends to be more complex.
When Scan Kit is integrated in MultiProcessor mode, it is capable of scanning multiple barcodes at the same time. So you can use this integrate mode, if simultaneous scanning is a big priority for your app.
Here's an overview of some of the key differences:

HUAWEI Scan Kit provides two types of packages: Lite and Pro. The size of a Lite package is 700 KB, while the Pro package is a much larger 3.3 MB. The two packages only differ slightly on non-Huawei phones, and thus, developers who don’t have stringent demands for package size and use non-Huawei phones can select the Pro version.
You can also find some more info on this webpage: HUAWEI Scan Kit Introduction
I’ve provided some examples of the results from integration with HUAWEI Scan Kit.

HMS ML Kit- Text to Speech
With HMS ML Kit Huawei ensures that developers have a simple way to implement text-to-speech features into their app. Text to speech has the ability to turn text content into a natural spoken voice. This service uses the deep neural network (DNN) synthesis mode and can be quickly integrated through the on-device SDK to generate audio data in real-time. It supports the download of offline models. In the current version, two standard male voices and six standard female voices are available. This service is available globally, to developers across the world.
Using the ML Kit demo APK, you can see this technology in action.
How Developers are Implementing Text to Speech
Some of the more common areas in which TTS is used can be found in broadcasting, news, voice navigation, and audio reading. Developers will be able to use this feature to allow their users to convert large amounts of text, into speech output. HMS TTS also works seamlessly with navigation data, which enables developers to create powerful navigation apps. ML Kit also understands how to synthesizes the voice segment into the navigation voice, so that navigation is more personalized.

}
TTS is currently only available for users who have a Huawei device. Some of the limitations of this service include a cap on the amount of text that can be read, at 500 characters. Currently, TTS in French, Spanish, German, and Italian is deployed only in Asia, Africa, Latin America, and Europe. TTS depends on on-cloud APIs. During commissioning and usage, ensure that the device can access the Internet. Default specifications of the real-time output audio data are as follows: PCM mono, 16-bit depth, and 16 kHz audio sampling rate.

As a developer, you’ll know that mobile data is more expensive than ever, and this makes it increasingly difficult to attract new users. Optimizing your apps’ user experience and improving user loyalty are crucial to retaining users, and to do this, you need to personalize your app’s content, appearance, and style for different users.
Fortunately, HUAWEI Analytics Kit and Remote Configuration make this easier than ever.
What Is HUAWEI Analytics Kit
HUAWEI Analytics Kit is a free data analysis tool that you can use across a range of platforms (Android/iOS/Web) and on different devices (such as mobile phones/tablets). It automatically generates more than 10 kinds of analysis reports based on your users’ behavior and event data, so you can get a better understanding of your users and take a data-driven approach to marketing.

What Is Remote Configuration
Remote Configuration enables you to personalize your app’s content and appearance for different users based on the user attributes and audience groups you create in HUAWEI Analytics Kit. This can be done without even requiring users to update the app.
Application Scenarios of HUAWEI Analytics Kit and Remote Configuration
Ø With HUAWEI Analytics Kit's retention analysis function, you can monitor the retention rate of your app version. If you find that the latest version is more effective at retaining users, you can target those who are still using older versions and prompt them to upgrade.
Ø If you find that users who love animations, historical dramas, and suspense dramas are the most active of your video app, you can customize the app style to cater to these users.
Ø You can customize the appearance and content of e-commerce apps based on the characteristics of individual users. For example, you could show a different version of your app to young people and middle-aged people.
Streamlined Integration Process
Once you’ve integrated Remote Configuration, it only takes 5 minutes to integrate HUAWEI Analytics Kit. You can then customize your app’s appearance, content, and style for different users.
