What EMUI Needs To Make Petal Search Look Like Play Store

Last year we witnessed many changes in Huawei, since the latest launches of the brand with Google services, such as the fact that each time they work in the current of leaving aside forever the American developer. For this reason, we were able to see one of the alternatives of the Chinese firm so that its users could have alternatives when searching for any information on the web and, even, looking for apps. We are referring to Petal Search .

This search engine emerged as an alternative for the Asian firm so that its users could download Google’s own apps on their mobile devices, after being affected by the US government’s ban. However, the Chinese smartphone manufacturer has worked on its own “Petal” ecosystem so that users with a Huawei mobile never have to resort to either the Google search engine or its Play Store.

What is Petal Search like?

To begin with, we are facing a search engine for mobile phones from the Chinese firm with which we can not only have the typical functions of any web search engine , but it is also an alternative so that we can find the applications we are looking for. However, even though it has a clean interface and its news source is full, the truth is that it cannot guarantee the quality of its results.

However, since its launch, there have been a lot of improvements in its searches. For example, search results are presented with a tag or an image, rather than just text. Of course, if we buy it with other search engines, it is clear that Huawei’s produces quite similar results, but they are somewhat less relevant .

In addition, the way it worked could even be somewhat confusing for its first-time users, since the searches you performed on your smartphone disappeared when you pressed the search button, although it is something that no longer happens.

Find the apps you want, but with a trick

Keep in mind that one of its main uses at the time of its creation was to find applications. Therefore, you can also do it on the website itself and not in a specific store. More than anything, because because their phones did not have GMS, many popular apps are not among their AppGallery today (their own app store). So they decided to perform a unified search for apps from different sources .

This means that Petal Search is in charge of searching APKMonk, APKPure, Aptoide, AppGallery, etc. And depending on what is chosen, a website or an application store will open. This is why the user experience can also be a bit confusing, as it can be confused with an app store itself, when in reality it is not a store to use , but a tool to download apps from other sources . In addition to that there are not many guarantees where they come from or if it will really work on your Huawei.

Therefore, we would be facing a lack of security, since in many cases when trying to install apps from Petal Search we must give permission to the smartphone so that it can install software from external sources, leaving the possibility that we endanger our smartphone .
