Huawei AppGallery, launched 2011 (2011) in China, and 2018 (2018) worldwide,[1] is pre-installed with all new Huawei mobile devices. When Huawei's new devices lost access to Google Mobile Services (GMS) and other Google applications due to the USA / China trade wars[3] in May 2019,[4] the company could not use Google services on some of its new phones, especially the Mate 30,[1] and began to release its phones using only AppGallery, and its own proprietary Huawei Mobile Services (HMS) without GMS, Google Play store, and all other Google apps installed on them.[1][5]

As of third quarter 2020, AppGallery has reached 350 billion app downloads.[1][6] As of 2020, AppGallery had 490 million users in over 170 countries and regions,[1][7] and nearly 1.6 million developers.[3]
