Now UC Web says they support Light App and is pitching the Light App in the U.S.. Yu Yongfu, UCWeb’s Chairman & CEO, calls on mobile developers to leverage it to reach out to potential users in the Chinese market and emerging markets at GMIC 2013 Silicon Valley.
Amazon will launch its Light App on UC’s platform as the first global brand that users will be able to shop on Amazon within the browser.
