Huawei has confirmed that its devices will continue to receive software and security updates, reports Huawei Central.
Last year, Google stopped providing non-public applications to the company to comply with a US blacklist.
The business was supplied a temporary relief that allowed it to provide software updates to its existing phones. Handsets launched after the transaction ban come with an open-source variation of Android and deficiency key services and programs.
The temporary general license expired recently and this increased speculations that older Huawei and Honor phones would stop receiving Android upgrades from Google.
Huawei states that phones that were released before it was set on the thing record have yet to be affected and will keep getting updates.
As for the new devices that do not comprise Google Mobile Services (GMS), updates will be managed through Huawei's AppGallery.
Google had previously said it would keep providing updates as long as the government lets it do so. There is not any sign from its side that it is going to continue sending out updates today that the temporary general permit has expired.
The Commerce Department recently said that the permit will not be extended.
The US reveals no intention of allowing Huawei off readily as is evident by a recent move which intends to make it even harder for the company to source chips. The company recently said it might no longer make its chips due to restrictions imposed by the US authorities and that the Mate 40 will be its last phone to have a Kirin chip.
After this year, the manufacturer is expected to start its first telephone with Harmony OS, its own operating system.
