106 Uses For A Smart Phone and

What I Use on My Phone

By

David Kocol

Acknowledgement to B. Jaison

While I was working on this presentation, I came across an e-book from B. Jaison, who wrote “100 ways to use your Android Device”. I acknowledge using ideas from his work to add to mine to get to the 100.

While I thought my idea was original, B. Jaison beat me to it. His book can be purchased on Amazon.com

SmartPhones

• Global smartphone shipments grew 47 percent to hit 230 million devices in the second quarter of 2013, according to a new report from research firm Strategy Analytics.

Android versus Apple

Android captured record market share of

80 percent,

while iOS (Apple)hit a new low of

14 percent.

Microsoft catching up?

• “Microsoft slotted into third position with 4 percent share, reaching its highest level in the global Smartphone market for three years,”

• That may not sound like much, but it is almost a third as much market share as Apple, which only a year ago seemed light years ahead of its old rival.

This presentation is platform neutral

Virtually all the apps that we discuss will be available on either Android or Apple products,

in some form.
