Text, No Voicemail
• Leaving a voice mail instead of texting is impolite because it wastes the receiver’s time.
• Asking people something that is easily discoverable on the Internet is equally rude because the communication is not only unnecessary but also time-consuming.

Preoccupied by Smartphone
• An estimated 20 million passengers miss bus or train stops each year because of "digital distraction" from their smartphone.
• The problem has affected 51% of Britons and causes around 15% of commuters to run late for meetings, according to the findings.
• Over the last year, passengers have missed their stops an estimated 29 million times.

We Spend More Time with our Smartphone than our Partner

Maslow’s Pyramid with Wi-Fi
Wireless Data Traffic Explosion

Mobile Device Use at Home

Occasions for Mobile Device Use

Mobile Consumer Behavior
• There’s a persistent myth that mobile users are always distracted, on the go, “info snacking” in sessions of 10 seconds. That’s certainly part of the mobile experience, but not the whole story. Mobile isn’t just “mobile”. It’s also the couch, the kitchen, the three-hour layover, all places where we have time and attention to spare. 42 percent of mobile users say they use it for entertainment when they’re bored. Those aren’t 10-second sessions. That means we shouldn’t design only for stunted sessions or limited use cases.
Josh Clark, “Nielsen Is Wrong on Mobile,” .Net Magazine, April 12, 2012, www.netmagazine.com/ opinions/nielsen-wrong-mobile.
Are Mobile Users in a Rush? No.
• People are turning to their smartphones more to utilize their downtime than to meet some urgent need and that users are not always in a huge rush when they are using their smartphones. (p.11)
• People are willing to and actually do turn to their mobile devices for a longer time than just a few minutes and for tasks that can be complicated. (p.12)

Don’t Dumb Things Down on Mobile
• There are, of course, differences based on mobile and desktop usage patterns; but the core value of a web service remains the same across both formats and beyond. In fact, you’ll quickly find your customers will expect to do just about everything (within reason) on mobile. Especially those who primarily (or only) use their mobiles to get online. So don’t dumb things down on mobile—focus on what really matters most anywhere people can access your website.
