Oh No! Huawei Is Now Showing Ads On the Lockscreen Of Its Smartphones
The well-known Chinese smartphone maker Huawei is going through a complicated situation after the ban applied by the government of the United States, which has led the company to rethink its entire strategy. If this was not enough, then let me tell you guys that for some hours, some users are reporting that their Huawei and Honor smartphones have now begun to show advertising on the lock screen without having installed the advertiser’s application. The advertising shows the details about the well-known service ‘Booking.com’ for trips and tours this appears when you have activated the option ‘Huawei Highlights’ from the settings of wallpapers on smartphones. According to the information, the advertising began to appear on 12 June in the models Huawei P30 Pro, P20 Pro, P20, P20 Lite, Mate 20 Pro, and Honor 10. So far there are reports of this in countries like the United Kingdom, Netherlands, Ireland, South Africa, Norway, Germany and several other countries around the globe.
