- Integrate HMS into your app and win cash prizes
Huawei is running a separate competition where developers are rewarded for integrating HMS Core and HMS Capabilities into their apps. First prize is worth R120 000 in cash, while second and third place winners will be awarded R60 000 in cash each.
This competition is scored as follows:
- App popularity (30%): The app with most downloads in other app markets will score a full 30%. Apps with fewer than 10,000 downloads will score 0%. For scores in between, the following formula is used: (App downloads – 10,000) / (Max app downloads in the competition – 10,000) * 30%
- HMS Core integration (50%): 10% is awarded for each integrated HMS kit (total score cannot exceed 50%)
- HMS Special Kit integration (20%): Integrate any HMS special Kit (Security Capability, HiAI, Camera Kit, Health Kit, Video Kit, Audio Kit, AR Engine, Image Kit, Accelerate Kit, Scene Kit, Computer Graphics Kit, hQUIC Kit) and score 20%
The top 20 South African apps based on this scoring method will win the following prizes:
- Platinum Award – 1st place
- R120 000 cash
- Golden Award – 2nd and 3rd place
- R60 000 cash
