Definition

Quick apps are a new form of installation-free apps developed based on industry standards. They are developed based on the frontend technology stack and support native rendering, therefore possessing the advantages of both HTML5 apps and native apps. Users do not need to install quick apps and only need to tap them open and enjoy the same experience and performance as native apps.

Advantages

Low Costs

You can use JavaScript and CSS to develop quick apps, reducing the code amount to 20% of that required for developing native Android apps providing the same functions. In addition, you can convert existing HTML5 apps into quick apps quickly

Native Experience

The native rendering technology enables quick apps to provide functions and experience of native Android apps, but requires less memory space and can be updated automatically.

High Retention

Users can tap to use quick apps without installation, add a quick app to their home screen if they want to use it later, and access a used quick app again from entries such as recently used apps or push notifications.

Easy Access

Your quick apps can be distributed to various channels such as AppGallery, Quick App Center, deep links, and HUAWEI Assistant, effectively improving your app exposure.
