Huawei's HarmonyOS NEXT: A New Android-Free Era Begins

Huawei's upcoming HarmonyOS NEXT, which does not natively support Android apps, can still run them using an Android emulator called "EasyAbroad" found in Huawei's AppGallery. This emulator allows users to access popular Android apps like YouTube and Google Maps, although with some limitations such as notification issues. The emulator uses microG to provide Google Play Services functionality without a Google account. This development follows Huawei's shift to HarmonyOS after losing access to Google's services due to U.S. trade restrictions.

"Microsoft's AI Copilot App Quietly Debuts on iOS and Android Platforms"

Microsoft has released its Copilot app, previously known as Bing Chat, for Android, iOS, and iPadOS devices. The app features AI-driven capabilities such as drafting emails, composing stories, summarizing texts, and creating travel itineraries, utilizing OpenAI's GPT-4 technology. Additionally, it includes an Image Creator feature powered by DALL·E 3 for generating visual content. This marks a significant move as it offers GPT-4 for free, contrasting with OpenAI's model which charges for GPT-4 access. Copilot, already available on the web, is now positioned to become a standalone service, potentially replacing the Bing app in the future.

"Microsoft Expands Copilot AI to Mobile with New iOS and Android Apps"

Microsoft has expanded its AI offerings by launching Copilot apps for Android and iOS, featuring capabilities such as text-to-text, text-to-image, and AI-powered search with options to use GPT-4 or a lesser language model, and the Dall•E image generator. Despite the lack of a mobile OS, Microsoft aims to compete in the mobile and search markets, leveraging AI to enhance Bing's appeal against Google. Initial reviews suggest the apps are competent, offering convenience in text-to-text services, but may not significantly alter established user habits in search and image generation. However, Microsoft could gain an early advantage in the text-to-text app market before Apple and Google integrate similar features into their operating systems.
