Kirusa, a global leader in providing telecom and social media solutions, today launched MyGenie, a revolutionary free airtime app for prepaid android users in Nigeria. 

The MyGenie app lets android users explore and download new and popular android apps. MyGenie users are rewarded with free airtime credits for downloading, installing, and using these android apps. They can use the credits to recharge their mobile numbers, or gift the airtime credits to their friends and family. What’s more, MyGenie also provides free airtime credits when a user invites their friends to the app, and when their friends start downloading apps via MyGenie.

The apps that can be downloaded through MyGenie range from games to dating to local utility apps. Some of the apps available to MyGenie at the time of launch include InstaVoice, 474Recharge, Zamba Caller, APUD Launcher, Super B Cleaner, BBM, UC Browser, and more.
