Teams with I WIT Digital to push child-friendly apps via Opera Mobile.
Opera Software has teamed with Chinese OEM I WIT Digital to pre-install the Opera Mobile browser and the Opera Mobile Store on its Android kids' tablets. I WIT specialises in designing and producing tablet devices for three to nine year olds. Its products are waterproof and shockproof, and aim to help kids learn, talk and play.
The Opera Mobile Store features more than 200 kid-friendly apps, which parents can install to keep their children entertained and stimulated. Apps include word and memory games, stories, singing, puzzles, and more.
The Opera Mobile Store and Opera Mobile browser are pre-installed on I WIT's I5S and I70 models, for sale in Poland and Russia.
Igor Netto, business developer for mobile at Opera Software, said: "Today's children are interacting with technology earlier, as tablets and devices offer kids new possibilities for learning and discovering the world around them.
"We are bringing even more learning and fun to I WIT's tablets by making it easy for parents to install apps, which appeal not only to kids but to app fans of all ages."
