  • Telenor Takes the Mobile Internet to the Masses
    Telenor takes the mobile Internet to the masses The Mobile Internet Asia project hit the ground running this spring. Telenor is on its way to bringing the Web to the masses on both feature phones and smartphones. Today Asia is experiencing the world’s most rapid growth when it comes to mobile Internet usage. In the past two years alone, mobile Web traffic has tripled on the continent, making Asia the source of 18 percent of the world’s mobile Web browsing (source: Statcounter, Pingdom). In order to play a central role in capturing a share of this growth, Telenor Digital Services kicked off the Mobile Internet Asia (MIA) project in April this year. A mobile Internet leader in Asia “Telenor Group and its Business Units have, for several years now, focused on the importance of mobile Internet in Asia, and we have run pilot projects in this area to find the best solutions that meet the needs of our customers,” says Sissel Henriette Larsen, Vice President and Head of Services, Telenor Asia. “By starting the MIA project now, we are making a formal move to become leaders in mobile Internet in Asia. We want to tap into this explosive growth and the best Internet experience to customers.” The MIA project, under the Telenor Digital Services umbrella, includes two main focus areas: “Build the Base” and “Smartphone”. Each focus area shares the goal of establishing Telenor as a leader in providing mobile Internet. However, the two work streams differ in terms of who is targeted and how. Accelerating smartphone growth in Asia The Smartphone work stream within in MIA project is newly headed by Mark (Amarit) Sukhavanij, effective July 1, 2012.

  • 'Inside Track' Mobile App Beta Testing
    PITTSBURGHOPERA page 1 Pittsburgh Opera ‘Inside Track’ Mobile App beta testing Thank you for being a beta tester for our new ‘Inside Track’ functionality within the Pittsburgh Opera Mobile App. Background on Pittsburgh Opera Mobile App The Pittsburgh Opera Mobile App launched in 2016. It was built using a platform called Instant Encore, which is the leading software provider of performing arts mobile apps in North America. The app, which is free and available for both iOS and Android devices, features a plethora of opera content. Examples include performance and event schedules, bios on our Resident Artists, ticket purchasing, video excerpts, and more. Instant Encore has recently added functionality which enables patrons in the theater to receive content during an actual performance. The content, which is all visual (photos/text), is meant to enhance the patron’s experience during the performance, by providing context, background information about the composer or piece being performed, etc. Pittsburgh Opera has installed this software in our app, and is testing it during the fall performances at the Benedum. Over the winter we will be rolling out new, custom-built functionality which allow us to include audio content as well. We are calling the combined product ‘Inside Track’. We want to make sure that we have worked out any kinks with the ‘phase 1’ software (i.e. visual content only) prior to launching phase 2 (audio content.) How to download the app The Pittsburgh Opera mobile app is available for free download in the App Store for iOS devices and Google Play for Android devices.

  • Opera GX Gaming Browser Exceeds 8 Million Active Users
    Opera GX gaming browser exceeds 8 million active users March 29, 2021 - Opera GX monthly active users grew over 250% year-over-year in February - Aggressive product roadmap planned to expand Opera GX well beyond current levels OSLO, Norway, March 29, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Opera Limited (NASDAQ: OPRA), one of the world's major browser developers and a leading internet consumer brand, announced today that Opera GX has exceeded 8 million monthly active users and grew over 250% year-over-year in February. "These results are encouraging: Opera GX continues to grow rapidly as more and more gamers are discovering Opera GX," said Krystian Kolondra, EVP of Gaming & PC Browsers. "We are focused on continuing this rapid growth through an aggressive product roadmap across Opera GX and Opera Gaming. This includes continuing to add more gaming features and functionality to Opera GX and building out our YoYo Games Gamemaker Studios 2D gaming platform. We are really excited about the potential for our gaming efforts to drive significant growth for Opera for a long-time to come." Opera launched GX in June of 2019 and has since expanded its gaming efforts, including forming its Opera Gaming division earlier this year to unite the company's innovative efforts across gaming, game development, and the browser experience. Providing gamers with a browser that improves their experience - rather than compete with it - by integrating gaming and browsing is a key element of Opera's long-term growth strategy in gaming.

  • Opera Use and User Behavior White Paper
    Opera Mini Opera use and user behavior white paper Why Opera Mini is the world’s most popular and influential mobile browser On Device Research and Opera Software 1 | Opera/On Device Research white paper 2 | Opera/On Device Research white paper Executive summary In conjunction with mobile research firm On Device Research, Opera Software conducted a large global study to help understand trends in mobile-internet browsing and, more specifically, the effect of the Opera mobile browser and how its user experience compares to other mobile browsers. The results offered powerful insight into the behaviors and attitudes of mobile-internet users, as well as Opera’s global popularity. The survey results break down trends by region and country to offer conclusions as to why Opera is the world’s most popular and influence browser, with users who are the most active and valuable mobile-internet users for operators and content providers. Some key findings: • Mobile is key to connecting people to the internet; Opera is a driver of this. Opera connects the unconnected. Of mobile-only internet users, 56% are Opera users, which is 13% more than non- Opera users. • Opera users are more satisfied. On a scale of 1 to 10, Opera users report being significantly more satisfied with both their handsets/phones (rating their experience at 7.3 out of 10) and their mobile operators (rating their satisfaction at 7 out of 10). Users’ positive impressions can, in part, be attributed to how well the device and network work with the Opera browser. • Opera users are strong brand advocates.
