On October 15th, the Huawei Qiankun App launched HUAWEI ADS Sentry Mode Enhanced Edition, adding mobile viewing of Sentry Mode recordings and a live view feature (Cloud View). Annual memberships are available at a limited-time special price of RMB 99.
Dual-Mode Monitoring System
Basic Edition (Free): Provides 360° local monitoring via 12 on-vehicle cameras. Automatically records and stores video to the vehicle's computer when an abnormal event (such as a collision or scratch) is triggered, allowing for on-vehicle playback.
Enhanced Edition (Subscription): Adds two new cloud service features:
Historical Video Cloud Replay: Automatically uploads de-sensitized surveillance videos (license plates and facial recognition) to the Huawei Cloud. Remote viewing of 30 days of recordings is supported via the Qiankun App, making it suitable for evidence collection and vehicle recovery scenarios.
Real-time Cloud View: Live streaming of the vehicle's exterior with ultra-low latency of 200-300 milliseconds. The 360-degree surround view can be manually switched, ensuring a clear view of the surrounding environment even in heavy rain.

Remotely confirm the safety of the parking area after leaving the vehicle and automatically park it;
Instant push alerts to your phone for abnormal vehicle vibrations.

(Data as of October 2025)
Huawei leverages its cloud service experience in the consumer electronics sector for in-vehicle use, offering dual security features of "Cloud Eye + Cloud Brain" for an annual fee of less than 100 RMB. Compared to intelligent driving packages costing thousands of RMB, this modular payment model better suits the "on-demand subscription" consumption habits of young users. As the Hongmeng Intelligent Driving Alliance expands, this function may become a "standard service" for smart cars.
