Google and Huawei: this is what will happen to your mobile applications

What was a future and hypothetical scenario has finally been confirmed. Trump has declared Huawei as one of the companies that could endanger the security of the United States of America and several companies in the sector have had to give in to these pressures . At this time, corporations such as Google, Qualcomm and even Intel have already confirmed the ban on the Chinese company and the future looms very dark for Huawei.

Meanwhile, as a user, you probably want to know how the banning of Huawei by Google directly affects youGoogle is the owner of Android and hence the firm's mobile division will be badly damaged after this announcement. Google will have to close all agreements with Huawei and it seems that the new mobiles could not have access to any of its services or apps.

What will happen to Google applications on existing Huawei phones?

This is already clear to us. Huawei has commented that during these years it has been very important for the Android community and has even helped to increase the sales of devices with this operating system. All Huawei and Honor phones and tablets will continue to enjoy support from the firm and Google:

• There will be monthly security updates for all devices already on the market.
• They will be able to use all Google applications, without limits and with updates.

If you have a Huawei mobile you shouldn't regret too much, you can take a deep breath and be calm because your mobile will continue to work as before. The biggest problem comes when we talk about operating system updates. If everything continues as before, Huawei will not be able to receive the Android 10 (Android Q) update and this is not good for users.

What Huawei could do is update the version of the operating system based on the free code of AOSP The problem here is that for For manufacturers to use AOSP they need certification from Google which could not be granted as it is now.

What happens to Huawei phones that are released from now on?

The biggest problem and uncertainty is created when talking about new releases. The Huawei P30 and P30 Pro will be the last high-end (at least with current regulations) that we know of with Google applications. The brand's new phones, both Huawei and Honor, will have to give up all Google applications.

You won't be able to use Google Play, Gmail, Calendar, YouTube, Google Pay and all these types of applications on your phone. All this package is included in Google's Android as well as most of the improvements that have taken place with the latest versions. Huawei will have to resort to its own applications as well as its own app store (currently it already has AppGallery), its own mail manager and other associations.

Google applications that Huawei will not have

• Google Play Services
• The Google Search Application
• Google Calendar
• The Google Assistant
• Gmail
• Google Calculator
• Google Clock
• Google Pay
• Hangouts
• Google Photos
• Google Maps
• Youtube
• Chrome
• Google Drive, as well as Docs, Sheets, or Slides
• Google Fit
• Google News, Play Books, Play Newsstand, Play Music, Play Games or Play Movies
• Marker
• The Google Keyboard

The worst thing is that I couldn't use Microsoft or Amazon applications either, as an alternative. Both companies belong to the United States of America and will not be able to establish a direct relationship with Huawei.The future involves using a non-legal application that allows you to install Google services on future Huawei phones. This reminds us of what is done in mobile phones from other brands that do not have these applications by default.

And the latter as long as Huawei chooses to base its own operating system on Android. A few months ago we learned that the brand was creating its own operating system and this may be the perfect time to take advantage of it.
