ClasseViva is a cloud-based learning platform developed by one of Italy’s top education companies, Gruppo Spaggiari Parma. Gruppo Spaggiari Parma CEO Riccardo Agostini said the app has proved particularly useful in recent months as its enabled schools throughout Italy to deliver effective remote learning during the Covid-19 pandemic.
“The Covid-19 situation has posed unique challenges for teachers and students, and listing ClasseViva on AppGallery has helped us minimise disruption to our users by ensuring they have access to quality remote learning tools.”
Used widely throughout the school community in Italy, the app is split between three platforms – ClasseViva Student, ClasseViva Family, and ClasseViva Teacher. Currently, the app is being used 1.7 million times every day by AppGallery users, with an average daily user involvement of over 5 minutes.
Integrating ClasseViva with HMS innovative capabilities also helped the company develop a superior learning tool and offer the best possible user experience for the growing number of AppGallery users.
“Huawei’s Analytics Kit provides useful insights and real-time data on user behaviour and monitors app performance. This allows us to better analyse how teachers, students, and families are using the app, and meet teachers’ and students’ needs in a constantly evolving learning environment,” Agostini said.
Other kits integrated on ClasseViva include the Push Kit, which enables instant messaging about updates and notifications; Huawei’s crash analysis service, which enables app makers to monitor the quality of their app in real time; and the Scan Kit, which enables absences to be registered and approved through the app by scanning unique QR codes.
“Furthermore, Huawei helped facilitate this remote learning by guaranteeing fast delivery of their Huawei T3 and T5 tablets to help us maximise the amount of teachers and we could reach.”said. Agostini.

Badoo is available as a Quick App, an innovative feature unique to AppGallery which enables installation-free apps that provide experiences very close to the native versions. Badoo’s Head of Communications Tristan Pineiro said Quick Apps not only take up much less space on people’s phones and therefore enable improved app performance under heavy loads, they also enable a better user experience.
“In the modern day, daters want a quick and convenient dating platform that can cater for their busy lifestyles, and having Badoo available as a Quick App allows daters to enjoy easy access across different devices and platforms,” Pineiro said.
Furthermore, Badoo integrates Huawei Mobile Service’s Chip-Device-Cloud capabilities to enable optimised in-app functionality and help deliver the smoothest possible dating experience for AppGallery users. For example, Huawei Mobile Service’s geolocation intelligently combines GPS, Wi-Fi, and base stations to give precise user locations and enable daters to meet people around them.
Meanwhile, Huawei’s Push Kit works in tandem with the Quick Apps function, enabling developers to check if push tokens on users’ devices have expired when the app is brought to the foreground. The Push Kit also enables developers to control how and when notifications are sent to users and ensure the correct information is shown when they tap the notification, meaning users have continued access to the latest updates and promotions.
“These days, there are many different online dating platforms, and people want a service that offers a smooth and efficient user experience, as well as being able to date honestly. Listing with AppGallery and integrating with Huawei Mobile Service’s innovative kit means that Badoo can offer both these things, which ultimately helps us reach more users and achieve higher engagement rates,” Pineiro said.
Huawei constantly works on collaborations with the world’s top app developers to create quality apps, and Badoo is one of the latest among 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 420 million monthly active users throughout more than 170 countries and regions to Huawei’s smart and innovative ecosystem.
AppGallery provides users with more choice and better app discovery options, with thousands of apps across 18 categories including news, social media, entertainment, and more.

Hello everyone!
There are several methods of app monetization: You can display ads, divide the app’s functionality into “basic” and “pro” segments, and so on. However, a monetization model that is too aggressive -- displaying too many ads or setting an unreasonably high price -- may produce worse user experience. App development, therefore, is a constant struggle to balance monetization and user satisfaction.
We at Infatica, a global peer-to-business proxy network, have come up with another solution: SDK monetization.
How it works

}
You can implement the Infatica SDK into your application -- this will allow users to join our network. For providing resources of their idle devices, users will be rewarded with an ad-free app, premium features, or something else you’d like to introduce as a benefit.
Advantages
Implementing the SDK is worth the effort -- here are some of the advantages both you and your users will get:
Extra income: The SDK allows you to earn extra income. Naturally, you can combine it with any other monetization method.
Omni-monetization: You’re monetizing your users even if they aren’t visiting your app.
User loyalty: Users prefer to become a peer in our network rather than watch ads or buy subscriptions.
Better user experience: You’ll keep your retention rate safe due to better user experience -- you can offer your app without ads or for free.
Transparent rules: We don’t have any hidden terms. All the rules are clear, and we are diligent about following them
Lightweight: The SDK has minimal impact on the size of your app and doesn’t create additional load.
Wide range of platforms: We support monetization in both desktop (Windows, macOS) and mobile (iOS, Android) applications, as well as Chrome extensions.
Respect for user rights and user experience: Although app monetization is important, we hold our users even higher. To protect their rights and ensure the best user experience, we follow strict security measures and policies.
Money
The financial aspect of app development is especially important, so here’s a breakdown of how much money you can make: We pay per ACU (Average Concurrent User) per month, with an additional factor of user location.
Safeguards against abuse
SDK monetization offers some powerful features, so you’re in the right to think: “Is it safe for my users?” Yes, it is safe -- our security measures include strict compliance and network monitoring, ensuring that peer resources are only used legitimately.
Furthermore, we don’t collect or share with third parties any user data, with the exception of IP location data.

"Gaotie Guanjia serves as a helpful travel assistant, and has been designed to meet the diversified demands of users. We aim to deliver one-stop personalized travel services capable of satisfying a wide range of scenarios." said Shi Cewei, vice president of Gaotie Guanjia.
Shi Cewei: Vice president of Gaotie Guanjia and Flight Master
Adhering to this vision, Gaotie Guanjia focuses on app innovation. When the company was expanding the product portfolio, Gaotie Guanjia encountered some new challenges. "We found that users often encountered problems during sign-in." said Shi, "They need to enter their user name, password, and verification code every time they sign in, and this has a negative impact on their experience." As a steadily increasing number of users is key to success, Gaotie Guanjia needs to make the sign-in process as smooth as possible before they can deliver more qualified services and ensure a steady growth in the user base. Flight Master, an app developed by the same company, has gained many loyal users thanks to its spectacular user experience and humanized functions. "If we leverage the user base from Flight Master, we can help both new and existing users of these two apps enjoy the travel services we provide for them. This will bolster our product development." said Shi.
On Huawei phones, users can enjoy different platform versions of Gaotie Guanjia.
Fortunately for Gaotie Guanjia, Huawei launched Keyring, an innovative service which helped solve the issue properly. With Keyring integrated into Gaotie Guanjia, user credentials are encrypted and stored on their own device. Whenever the user opens Gaotie Guanjia, they simply use the device's biometric verification for automatic sign-in instead of having to enter their user name and password each time. Keyring can also securely store user credentials on the cloud, so if a user changes their device, Keyring can back up their credentials from the cloud to the new device. "HMS Core helps us streamline the account sign-in process and improve our app ecosystem. This solution removes a large workload from our developers and operations personnel, allowing them to focus on enhancing user experience." said Shi.
In the future, Gaotie Guanjia will focus on providing data and services more efficiently, and will continue to utilize HMS Core's platform advantages, system capabilities, and service support to build more valuable travel services.
