Google has barred phone maker Huawei from some updates to the Android operating system, dealing a blow to the Chinese firm, BBC reports.
New designs of Huawei smartphones are set to lose access to some Google apps.
The move comes after the Trump administration added Huawei to a list of companies that American firms cannot trade with unless they have a licence.
In a statement, Google said it was "complying with the order and reviewing the implications".
Huawei declined to comment.
