Ayoba reiterates protecting users’s privacy, announces in-app assistant

Free African messaging app ayoba has reiterated its focus on protecting its users’ privacy and security.

“All the content is curated,” says interim CEO Richard Cimardi. ‘We have a team of editors who check every post before it goes live. This includes our music and entertainment channels. So it’s 100% family friendly and safe for our younger users.”

Ayoba has recently launched an in-app assistant, Aya, to guide new users on how to use an instant messaging app. Aya appears in everyone’s chats and can run a variety of interactive tutorials for key features within ayoba.

In partnership with MTN, customers are automatically allocated free data to use ayoba. Allowances range from 50MB daily to unlimited usage, depending on the country. Free data allocations can be used for most activities available in the app – including messaging, browsing, gaming and listening to music.
