What We Think About Tata Neu App
Before writing this piece, our team at Fossbytes installed the Tata Neu app on their smartphones. We tested the app on both Android and iOS. We find the app has an excellent modern user interface in our testing. It certainly brings services of different categories in one place.
But when we tried to access those services, we were redirected to an in-built web browser instead of opening it in the Tata Neu app. Also, despite taking two years to launch the app, the NeuPass membership program isn’t live yet.
So, in other words, Tata Neu is a web browser bringing various Tata services in one place. We agree that this is the first version of the app and we might see improvements in the future. But as of now, there is no such strong reason to start using the Tata Neu app.
What do you guys think about the Tata Neu app? Will you be using it instead of keeping individual apps? Do let us know in the comments.
