There are at least six Android app stores in China that have more than 100 million MAUs each: Huawei AppGallery, Tencent MyApp, Xiaomi Mi Store (or GetApps), Oppo, Vivo, and Honor stores.

Huawei and Honor are seperate app stores?

And Oppo and Vivo too?

In both instances one company owns the other - why have competing app stores?

  • Because some dumbass decided to ban Huawei before, forcing Chinese brands to split itself to multiple sub brandings that operate independently.
