Samsung and Fingerprint to Help App Developers Market to Kids With New App Network Targeting Southeast Asia and Oceania

Samsung and Fingerprint have announced they are co-developing a kids' mobile app network enabling play-based learning for kids 3-to-7 years old.

Expected to launch in Southeast Asia and Oceania in Q1 2014, the new service on select Samsung devices offers a safe and fun environment for kids to play and learn. Parents can create a family account for multiple children and receive personalized reporting, content recommendations and access controls for each child.

The new network is part of Samsung's Kids' Play-and-Learn Content Initiative, a developer-focused program in collaboration with Fingerprint that is designed to drive the creation of play-and-learn Android apps for kids in Southeast Asia and Oceania.

To support this initiative and increase the quantity and quality of kids' apps, Fingerprint has also earmarked US$1 million to support the integration and localization of kids’ apps and interactive books globally.
