Ships with Magic UI 3.1 (Android 10) without Google services (Huawei Mobile Services instead). No built-in gesture or key opens a chosen app on EMUI 10 / Magic UI 3: knuckle gestures (where present) only take screenshots, record the screen or split the screen, and double-pressing Volume down only takes a photo. Announced in Russia on 2020-04-29; sales began 2020-05-04. The China version is the Honor Play 4T (AKA-AL10).

    Two taps on the home-screen widget within 3 s; a single accidental tap does nothing.

Gestures are set up in the phone settings as shown, then combined into a trigger recipe in the app, where practice mode shows step by step whether a gesture would trigger.
