With the newly developed applications, Intel promises that users will now be able to enjoy a better experience as they are designed to run fast and provide better customer satisfaction through the native code that is used through Intel INDE.

“Native applications lead to better customer satisfaction from those downloading them. Happy users are more likely to recommend the applications to their friends or to rate the applications higher, leading to more downloads for the developer,” said Agatha Gikunda, the Software Services Group Lead at Intel East Africa.
