Petal Search

Petal Search is the really useful application developed by Huawei for their brand and Honor smartphones to avoid blocking the use of Google applications.

The search app for Huawei phones

The trade war between the US and China has harmed Huawei users, among others. The Asian company has seen its devices blocked from using the apps in the Google ecosystem, with the problem that the same applies to using Android. And having no other choice, this manufacturer developed its own alternatives such as this search engine Petal Search.

Huawei's search app replaces Google

The app performs internet searches to find content on the web, but also offers specific search functions and properties, e.g. B. to find apps, messages, images, Q&A, etc.

In terms of design, it reminds us of the built-in search engine that we find in the launcher of Huawei devices, offering us a very functional and practical use: sober design and easy navigation between sections, and includes a widget for the main screen. By the way, it uses its own search engine, which not only dispenses with Google, but also with more established alternatives such as Microsoft Bing.

These are the main functions that we will find in this app for Huawei and Honor. The search sections are:

• Web.
• app.
• News.
• Pictures.
• videos.
• Personalized search topics for the user.
• Questions and answers.
• Hotels.
• flights.

In short, a pretty handy tool that also doesn't require a device from the Asian manufacturer.
