São Paulo, Brasil – July 18, 2024 – Opera News – the personalized news aggregator from global web innovator Opera – has won over the Brazilian news market. As of 15 July 2024, the platform has become the #2 app in the News & Magazines category in the Google Play Store in Brazil, and second, according to data.ai, in terms of active users in the country.
Opera News became the most downloaded news app in the world back in the second quarter of 2019. Featuring a mix of artificial intelligence and localized editorial teams, since its inception the platform has delivered a wide variety of global and local news to users around the world. Initially driven by growth in India and Africa before becoming popular across Europe, Brazil is the latest country in which the news aggregator has proven a big success since its launch in November 2021.
“We’re delighted to see that Brazil is the next big market in which Opera News is making waves,” said Juliana Psaros, Head of Regional Marketing for LATAM. “It’s a busy world out there, and most of us don’t have so much time to comb through all the news sources that we might want. Opera News has made it easy for Brazilians to stay on top of events both global and local.”
Along with its 11-country editorial team – including Brazil – Opera News uses advanced machine learning analytics to help users stay informed.
