Opera Software has launched an Artificial Intelligent powered-app dubbed “Opera News App”.

The app enables people to access their favourite news articles and hottest trending videos.

The Opera News App, follows the company’s recent announcement that its AI-powered news service inside Opera Mini grew to more than 100 million active users in less than a year.

This result showed an incredible interest in news globally.

In a statement, the company said, in addition to delivering great content, the app can also save up to 80% of users’ mobile data usage.

The company had last year outlined plans to invest $100m in the African market.

Opera also announced the launch of its “Africa First” strategy.

According to the statement, Opera will develop and launch its mobile products first for the African markets.

Opera News becomes the first product to be launched under this new strategy.

Jorgen Arnesen, Global Head of Marketing and Distribution at Opera stated that their aim is to develop best products for Africa.
