Rain Technology reported on June 26 that according to WeChat employee Kecun Xiao Jiang, the Hongmeng computer version of WeChat officially landed in the Huawei application market today, and the current installation volume has successfully exceeded 10,000 times.
It is reported that the Hongmeng version of WeChat released this time has supported the main functions of users’ daily use including basic communication functions, audio and video calls, browsing and publishing Moments/Official Account Articles/Video Account Content, Search Function, and various mini programs.
As of now, the Hongmeng computer application ecosystem has covered many vertical fields such as general office, design and creation, practical tools, financial management, audio and video entertainment, education and learning, and games. Official data shows that more than 150 head exclusive computer ecological applications are accelerating adaptation, and more than 300 integrated ecological applications have completed the adaptation work. It is expected that by the end of this year, the number of applications in the Hongmeng computer ecosystem will exceed 2,000, which means that users will have more choices.
More importantly, through the deep integration of desktop and mobile ecosystem, Hongmeng Computer breaks the limitations of the traditional operating system application ecosystem. Based on a unified development framework, mobile applications can be quickly deployed to the desktop, thereby building a multi-end unified application ecosystem and providing users with richer usage scenarios. This converged architecture reduces the adaptation cost of developers to a certain extent and brings higher convenience to users.
Industry insiders pointed out that the launch of Hongmeng Computer is expected to have a certain impact on the current computer operating system market structure. For a long time, Windows and macOS have occupied most of the market share, and the emergence of Hongmeng computers, especially in the domestic market, is expected to provide a third option. At the same time, Hongmeng Computer has provided new opportunities for the development of the domestic software industry. Domestic software manufacturers are expected to use the huge user base and technical support of the Hongmeng ecosystem to break through the ecological barriers of the traditional operating system and gain a broader development space. However, the true prosperity of the Hongmeng computer ecosystem still requires the active participation and contribution of more application developers.
