Brilliant Recipes Preserved for Posterity, with Chefs' Powered by HUAWEI HiAI - Huawei Developers

Grilling, stirring, baking, poaching… transforming ingredients into elegant dishes, cooking might be the most universal and enduring magic of human culture. But even so, making a simple pancake can be quite a challenge for a novice. With today's endless array of apps, there's no shortage of recipes at our disposal, for all tastes and diets. But if you're drawn in by the recipes of old and comfort foods, there's no app quite like Chefs'.
One-Touch Cookbook Digitalization
The creators behind Chefs' were a group of students from Warsaw University of Technology who are highly passionate about food, and were inspired in particularly by the dusty cookbooks in the basement. They hoped to create a handy culinary assistant that differs from any other cooking-related app on the market. Chefs', the fruit of their efforts, functions as a high-level digital cookbook for serious chefs and casual foodies alike.
In addition to offering a range of common services, such as searching and sharing functions, Chefs' also offers a unique one-touch image-based recipe generation feature, which enables you to take a snapshot or input an image from a cookbook, and be rewarded instantly with a clear, intuitive recipe on screen. This could spare you the endlessly tedious task of typing out recipes, and enables you to create a digital cookbook that can be shared and referenced with ease. Furthermore, the process of adding a recipe from an image is responsive and reliable, regardless of the network conditions.

HUAWEI HiAI Open Platform: Endowing Your Apps with Intelligent Attributes
Chefs' leverages HUAWEI HiAI's state-of-the-art AI techniques, Text Image Super-Resolution and General Text Recognition, to accurately identify text blocks and fill in the blank spaces between with the corresponding content. Better yet, HUAWEI HiAI Engine is based entirely on the device, which means that the AI capabilities incur no server-related costs. The HUAWEI HiAI platform jumpstarted the development process, enabling Chefs' creators to forgo endless rounds of AI model training and the costly burden of server rents, enabling them to realize their vision – which resulted in the app winning the first prize at the Huawei AI CHALLENGE – Warsaw 2020.
If you can't wait to uncover the wisdom lurking in the yellowed, dog-eared pages of a family cookbook, or yearning to collect all of your recipes in a single place, you'd be remiss not to check out Chefs' on HUAWEI AppGallery.

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.

Notebloc's core functions are centered around documents. The integration of the HMS Core Pencil Engine into the Notebloc app offers specialized features such as brush effects, handwriting editing, stroke estimate, smart shape, and double-tapping. These advanced tools provide a superior handwriting experience. Now, users can effortlessly edit documents, by using the marker to annotate, mark up, and add notes to a file, and they can also unleash their creativity by adding sketches or diagrams. This is how Huawei's Pencil Engine allows Notebloc to bring users' best ideas to life.
Notebloc also integrates the HMS Core ML Kit text recognition service, which enables the app to accurately identify and extract text from images of receipts, business cards, and documents, and provide precise, and structured transcription of important information in text, greatly improving user satisfaction.
Teamwork Timeline:​2013:Notebloc was founded in Barcelona, Spain
2021:In September, team meetings were held regarding co-development between Notebloc and Huawei. In November, the project began. Huawei's HMS Core DTSE team helped Notebloc's developers overcome difficulties, such as a lack of test devices and insufficient sample documents.
2022:In January, HMS Core was successfully integrated into the Notebloc app, and became available on the HUAWEI AppGallery.
Customer feedback:
STEM Alliance reported that Notebloc, one of the first apps in Europe to integrate Pencil Engine, was able to provide users with substantially improved note-taking services by working with HMS Core. More users can now access and use a myriad of editing tools, and can easily, and securely, scan and share documents.
The Notebloc team confirmed its intention to integrate other HMS Core capabilities in order to attract app users and increase monetization in the future.
