The report stated that 91% of American adults own a cell phone and many use their devices for more than just phone calls.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Pew’s recent survey, they found the most popular activities people perform on the smartphones are what you might expect; texting, accessing the web, and emailing. App downloads by phone owners have increased to 50%  – up from 22% in 2009. Many are also accessing location-based services such as directions or recommendations. Nearly half (48%) use their phones to listen to music. Also the proportion of video calling has tripled since May 2011.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese trends are important when trying to determine the best Mobile User Experience for your website and/or app. Without knowing these trends it would be difficult to properly leverage an app or a mobile website to its full potential.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSee our article on \u003ca href=\"https://digital.gov/resources/mobile-user-experience-guidelines-and-recommendations/\" title=\"Mobile User Experience Guidelines and Recommendations\"\u003eMaking Mobile Gov: User Experience Recommendations\u003c/a\u003e guidelines on creating good mobile user experiences.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eLisa Wilcox, U.S. Department of Agriculture\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n"}
