One of the hallmarks of a great smartphone user experience is the ease of finding or accessing its options and features. Users shouldn’t be lost digging through a half-dozen menu screens just to do simple things like toggling settings or finding apps. This is where Huawei’s user-oriented software solutions shine, with its new Petal Search feature bringing access to millions of apps, right on the phone’s home screen.
Petal Search: a gateway to millions of apps, news stories, media, and more
Petal Search is a handy search widget that lets users track down and download apps in just a few taps. Just like any normal search bar, users simply type in the name of the app they need and Petal Search will present all top and relevant app results, complete with the quick option to download and install them. No need to flick through layers of menus — just a quick and convenient way to get to the apps that matter to users.
Tapping on the Petal Search widget also immediately presents a list of popular app recommendations, providing users with a quick and useful glance at what they can add to their app collection. Opening the actual app displays a curated selection of content such as weather forecasts, top news, live sports scores/schedules, as well as music and image/video results.
Petal Search can also be added as a speed-dial shortcut on the Huawei browser for further convenience, especially when users need an intuitive way to install apps without minimizing the browser itself.
Users can download Petal Search on the Huawei AppGallery, and set it up as a home screen widget in the latest EMUI update (v 10.1.0.131). Petal Search retrieves its app results by combing through AppGallery and APKPure. If APKPure is already installed, using Petal Search then launches APKPure to install the app in question.
