In Android’s early days, you could use third-party lockscreen or active display apps to replace the dull default screen; this has since been replaced by support for various lockscreen media apps or carousels. But certain brands always tend to go overboard and create something that lies at the intersection of fascinating and absurd. That’s precisely what Huawei is doing with its interactive lock screen on specific flagship devices.Interactive lock screens aren’t new to Android. At some point, we must have all interacted with lock screens on old Samsung phones that had a ripple effect following our finger’s movement across the screen. However, Huawei is taking it a step further by embedding interactive games into its already interactive 3D lock screen. YouTuber Arun Maini, colloquially known as Mrwhosetheboss, recently posted a video on X, showing an interactive lock screen game on a Huawei Pura 80 Ultra flagship phone. The lock screen features an array of basketballs that move around the screen in response to the phone’s physical movement.
