Full fibre telecoms company Ogi is working with Amazon to back the launch of a bespoke Welsh language service built-in to the latest eero wifi software.
Ogi said the partnership highlighted both companies’ commitment to hyper-local digital inclusion and supports its drive towards a smarter, more connected Wales.
The eero wifi system now supports users in navigating its features seamlessly in Welsh. This milestone makes eero one of the few smart home systems to offer Welsh-language support in its mobile app, said Ogi.
Engineers at eero have customised the mobile app, incorporating familiar Welsh-language terms into the eero app to enhance the experience for all users.
Ogi’s Brand Marketing Director, Sarah Vining, said:
“Ogi’s mission has always been to provide world-class services that are inherently Welsh.
“Working with the team at eero, we’re not only bringing cutting-edge technology to Welsh homes but also making it more accessible for our customers, and for users all over Wales too. This partnership reflects our shared vision to make the internet more accessible to everyone.”
Welsh language support is now available to all eero users by downloading the latest software update (release 6.47.0).
“Our mission is to bring fast, reliable, and secure wifi to customers around the world.” said Mark Sieglock, eero EVP, Software and Services. “We’re thrilled to partner with Ogi to add Welsh language support, making the eero app more accessible to Welsh speakers in Wales.”
Ogi said that Amazon’s eero delivers fast, reliable and secure wifi using the latest mesh technology. The Amazon eero suite of products is available on all Ogi 400, Ogi 500 and Ogi 1Gig packages.
