In this report, we examine key mobile behaviours that have propelled it to a primary platform, using 9 global markets (USA, Canada, UK, Spain, Italy, Brazil, Mexico, China and Indonesia) to demonstrate pockets of intense usage within a mobile hierarchy of needs.

Key topics covered in this report include:

  • Mobile devices and apps’ dominant share of total digital time
  • How demographics behave differently in mobile consumption and how they divide time and activities between platforms
  • Which aspects of key content categories receive especially ‘mobile first’ behaviours, including Retail, Social Networking, News, Banking and Travel
  • Audiences and engagement for key global apps
  • How international markets have evolved mobile usage based on local needs (e.g. the dominance of messaging apps outside the US)
  • Challenges and opportunities for the continued growth of mobile platforms
