Description

From the listing uploaded by “appupdater”.

Puffin Cloud Store is an App Store for users to enjoy the benefits of Cloud Apps. A Cloud App is a Web App running on the Cloud Servers. • : Less than 1KB to download and install instantly. • : A budget phone can feel as fast as a flagship phone. • : Saves on average 75% of mobile data for non-video and non-game content. Puffin Cloud App is a game changer to bridge the digital divide and connect the next billion users. : A cloud app is NOT a native app, but a web browser shortcut to a website link pinned to the home screen. A cloud app has similar traits to a web app, but are not the same. ===== ===== * $1 per month for Puffin Monthly Subscription * $10 per year for Puffin Yearly Subscription ==== ==== • Puffin’s servers are located in the US and Singapore. Geolocation restrictions of content may occur if you are based in other countries. • Puffin is blocked in certain regions (e.g., China, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates) and some educational institutions (e.g., select schools within the United States).
