First 10 things you should do with your Huawei Mate 20 Pro
When you first fire up the Mate 20 Pro it will feel a little different to your last Android. Well, unless it was an Honor or Huawei.
This is thanks to EMUI, the odd little custom version of Android used in the phone. One of its main changes is the removal of the apps menu. EMUI started out years ago as a bit of an iOS rip-off.
It has moved on since, but the app screen is still wiped away. Well, unless you want to bring it back, anyway.
Go to Settings > Home Screen & Wallpaper, then tap on Home Screen Style. You’ll see options for Standard and Drawer. For long-term Android’ers like us, the Drawer mode definitely feels more “standard” to us. And as the Mate 20 Pro has a perfectly nice-looking apps screen, we can’t quite understand why Huawei is so ashamed of the little guy.
Caveat: sure, some people must prefer life without an app drawer. But it’s a bit like having a bedroom with no cupboards.
