HarmonyOS is Huawei’s native operating system that differentiates itself from Google’s Android. Although based on Android open source, the software has its own identity and unique features. The company recently announced the fourth iteration of its custom OS, HarmonyOS 4.0, and it has already been installed on over 10 million devices. Here are the details.

Huawei previously announced that just two weeks after its release, HarmonyOS 4 had been installed on 5 million devices. An impressive 1 million users upgraded to this new operating system on its very first day. The company has now shared another milestone, claiming that over 10 million devices have already adopted HarmonyOS 4.0.

Huawei is rolling out the latest software to eligible devices at a rapid pace. The company first added over 30 smartphones to the HarmonyOS 4.0 beta program and later it included 37 more devices to the roster.

HarmonyOS 4.0 comes with several notable changes, including rich theme templates and stylized layout design. You’ll be able to select the colors of your app icons and set emoji wallpapers and home screens by selecting your favorite emoji.

It will also let you better manage your notifications, by clustering them together and sorting them by importance. The notifications of the same application are now stacked into dynamic cards so that you can see more information about each notification without having to open it. HarmonyOS 4.0 also allows you to identify text and images by double-clicking, and then long-pressing to select them.

Notably, Huawei might also be planning to extend the HarmonyOS to PCs as well. We might be seeing Huawei laptops running the company’s native OS instead of Windows starting next year.
