Application stores are gaining ground in the emerging markets of Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, South and Central America and Africa as smartphone penetration increases and users seek a richer experience on their mobile devices, says Ovum.
In a new report*, the independent telecoms analyst firm states that the increasing penetration of smartphones, mobile broadband, and the ongoing reduction of service and device prices has translated into an expansion in the use of mobile applications in emerging markets. Operators regard app stores as a key factor in growing their subscriber bases and driving network traffic.
