StrongTop Eight
The top eight application categories on our platform
remained the same quarter-over-quarter (Chart I).These
categories include some of the most popular apps in the
app stores, which help these categories remain
consistently popular with mobile users.
Constant Communication
Communication apps were the third largest category on
our platform in Q2 (Chart I).These applications have
gained in popularity as consumers use communication
applications to find alternative methods of texting, calling,
and messaging outside of network carrier options. As
shown in the breakout of communications apps on our
platform (Chart J), mobile users are most often looking for
alternative ways to send and receive text messages.
Communications apps maintain engaged mobile users
throughout the summer and school-year.

Category for the first time on our platform (Chart I).This
category includes apps that help make shopping easier,
such as QR code readers, shopping lists, price comparison
tools, and branded applications for online and mobile
retailers. For more information on how retail advertisers
are leveraging mobile, see the callout on the Mobile Intel
