ExclusiveMobile shopping is worrying... and usually successful

I really don’t like to complain. Honestly, I don’t. I’m an optimist. True, I can be a bit of a cynic – but that’s because I like to see things work first time.

So when I saw a headline that said “Shopping via mobile phone causes concerns for consumers”, I wasn’t surprised. Disappointed but not surprised.

And then I looked closer – and I got annoyed. Not annoyed at the companies that make mobile shopping so disappointing. No, annoyed at the organisation that published the report.

ExclusiveMobile application downloads to double within 5 years

Many people would describe 2009 as 'the year of the application store', with billions of applications downloaded to mobile phones. Apple alone saw more than a billion applications downloaded by iPhone and iPod customers within six months.

ABI Research has calculated that a total of 2.3 billion apps have been downloaded this year – but expects an annual total of 5 billion downloads by 2014.
