HarmonyOS-based Amap version supports multi-device services

AutoNavi – the Chinese web mapping services provider announced that its Amap has adapted to the HarmonyOS native app version and supports multi-device services. The current application build has also become more seamless and efficient than before.

The AutoNavi firm announced this news during the Huawei Developer Conference 2024. It claims to be the first company in the field of map navigation to initiate the HarmonyOS-based app version development and has attained good progress.

Huawei and Amap signed a cooperation agreement last year (December) to begin the development of the HarmonyOS native app. The aim was to create a new full-scenario user experience with upgraded facilities and better navigation services for users.

More apps will join the HarmonyOS NEXT native app batch with efficient features and improvements over the previous application builds. This will ultimately expand the HarmonyOS app ecosystem to a greater extent in the home ground.
