What makes a good app? How should they be organized? And what is TelóNinja?

Today, smartphones are much more than just essential communication tools. They have become the digital hubs of our everyday lives. The average user has dozens, or even over a hundred, apps on their handset. From banking and parking to shopping, entertainment, healthcare, transportation and work or study, there’s an app for everything. Or two. Or ten.  But could the time come when apps stop helping and start overwhelming us? When, instead of digital convenience, our phone display feels more like digital chaos?

Manage services instantly from the app and adjust them to your business’s evolving telecoms needs

Critical thinking vs artificial intelligence – a new workshop for teachers

AI is no longer just a chat partner. It can generate texts, images, videos, spreadsheets and entire presentations as well as creative content. Yet for many, this is still uncharted territory. With AI-generated content appearing everywhere, developing a critical mindset and learning to use AI responsibly is becoming essential. Here are some pro tips to help you get started.

Experience of the first six months of Yettel’s Recharge Programme

At the beginning of 2025, Yettel launched its Recharge Programme, which uniquely combines employee recognition with support for mental well-being. The initiative ensures that every employee receives an additional month of paid leave – on top of their regular annual holiday – after completing five years of active service with the company. The company has now shared insights from the first six months of the programme.

How Gen Z lives, communicates and saves

Hungarian students are both digital natives and savvy shoppers: they spend hours a day on social media, while their purchases are driven by cost-efficiency. Yettel and Diverzum, Hungary’s biggest student discount platform, have teamed up to map the mobile usage and shopping habits of today’s 14-26-year-olds. Just in time for the new school year, they’re targeting students with a special joint offer.

Handset trade-in and new refurbished portfolio

Through Yettel’s new partnership with Rejoy, customers can sell their used handsets at fair market price, and even receive additional discounts from the operator. And from now on, handsets inspected and refurbished by Rejoy are also available at Yettel.

The network proved its worth at the biggest summer events: interesting data from the Sziget Festival and the Balaton Crossing

Yettel remains Hungary’s fastest mobile network, based on Ookla data and nationwide speed tests by szelessav.net. Just like in the second half of last year, Yettel delivered Hungary’s fastest mobile internet in the first half of this year, according to Ookla Speedtest Intelligence. The operator meets the growing demand of everyday life and special events with a fast, reliable and stable network. This can be confirmed firsthand by more than 10,000 participants of the Balaton Crossing and the 416,000 visitors of the Sziget Festival.

Mobile operator encourages other companies to join

Many people only contact customer services when they have a problem. But few people stop to think about who’s on the other end of the line, or just how important their work really is. That’s why Yettel launched Customer Service Week last year, to recognise the efforts of its own employees and to highlight the important role of customer service agents in society. Not only is Yettel continuing the initiative this year, it is also encouraging others to join in.

Messages from supporters reached the middle of Lake Balaton

Over ten thousand people took part in the 43rd LIDL Balaton Crossing.

At the start, 70% more calls were made, with conversations lasting 2.5 times longer on the Yettel network than on an average day.
