Fans of Ben 10, the UK’s number one boys’ brand, can impress their friends by emulating the mouth movements of their favourite alien characters, placing their iPhone in front of their own mouths and seeing the visuals on the handset move in correspondence to their speech insists ustwo™.
"As the stellar boys brand of the moment, Ben 10 was an obvious choice for our first iPhone app, but we didn’t want it to be something we did just for the sake of it. ustwo’s™ app really stood out to us in terms of innovation, creativity, usability and longevity, the key components for a successful app," said Joe Braman Commercial Director, Mobile, Digital & DVD at Turner Broadcasting.
