Page 3

More people are dependent on their mobile phones for digital access. Studies suggest that at least 88% of internet users are expected to go online using devices like their laptops or desktops and at least 8 in 10 users will access the internet through their mobile devices. This number will definitely rise steadily both in the young as well as the old age groups. This mobile internet usage growth in the USA is expected to be at a rate of 8.7% caused by affordable smartphones. Americans have also been using their tablets quite seriously in terms of the internet. In 2016 every two users out of three have been known to use the internet from their tablet. 2012 was the year of the tablets where audience growth reached 182.4%. However, this mobile device may not gain so much momentum as a mobile phone and may even slowly decline.
