Cat app and new desktop layout
Watson is launching the Catson app and a new desktop website.
Catson delivers the most beautiful, up-to-date and funniest cat stories, pictures and videos of the day directly to cell phones. "This allows us to offer fans of our cat content a complement to Watson without the news and sports and debate content," said Lina Selmani, a member of the editorial team at Watson. Catson is already being used actively, according to the statement. Swiss cat fans have already downloaded Catson 10,000 times.
Newly staffed with two full-time positions, Catson's editorial team delivers the best Cat content from the Watson kitchen and the Internet to users via push several times a day. "Installing the app and activating the push messages is worth it for the melody of the push alerts alone, but beyond that, early Catson users report a markedly improved quality of life since they installed Catson," says Editor-in-Chief Maurice Thiriet.
New desktop layout
On Wednesday, Watson also published the new layout of the desktop version after three years. "According to Thiriet, the new look is intended to be "a bit calmer and more adult. In the initial area of the site, more weight can now be given to the particularly important and particularly entertaining stories and clearer orientation can be created in the daily flood of news.
The page layout also changes in the mobile version of Watson, but the layout of the app remains unchanged. "In this way, we want to simultaneously relax the eye with a little more white space and give the user's brain some breathing room with a clearer structure and a less text-heavy introduction to Watson." explains Thiriet.
