Most mobile user time is spent using apps rather than mobile browsers. By 2015, over 80% of U.S. mobile users will have smartphones, and more than half of American adults already own a smartphone, with Apple and Android making up over 75% of the smartphone market. Research shows that mobile users increasingly rely on their devices for local searches, shopping, and prefer receiving offers and coupons on their mobile phones, highlighting the importance for businesses to have a mobile app in order to effectively engage and reach customers.
