Ships with EMUI 10.1 (Android 10); no later Android version was found. No Google Mobile Services (Huawei Mobile Services and AppGallery instead): the Android-based OS may still run our APK, but Google Assistant routines (android-voice) are not available. No built-in gesture or key opens a chosen app: knuckle gestures (where present) only take screenshots or record the screen, and double-pressing Volume down only takes a photo or opens the camera. Codes come from PhoneDB (PPA-LX3B is the Latin America model). Same phone as the P smart 2021 (PPA-LX1, PPA-LX2).

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.
