ADDISON, Texas, Jan. 11, 2012 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- WQN, Inc.
(OTCPK:WQNI) today announced the availability of its SafePlayground
application for Android Devices. SafePlayground provides parents with a
safe and secure gaming environment that can be handed off safely to
kids.

On average, mothers have downloaded about 11 apps for their smartphone,
but four of the applications have been for the child to use. Forty
percent of moms allow their children to play games on their smartphone
each day and 35 percent allow their child to use the smartphone for at
least an hour each day.

Kids mobile games are dangerous. Recent studies have shown that
approximately 65% of the free mobile applications are advertising
pornography. Kids are being bombarded with advertisements containing
inappropriate content that are prohibited in traditional media.

"This is the first time someone has created an application to protect
kids from inappropriate content that could potentially be harmful, "
said Michael Adler, Chief Executive Officer of WQN, Inc. "We are
excited about the response that we are receiving from both families
with children and game developers."
