Consumers are increasingly using multiple devices to access the internet. Smartphone ownership continues to grow and is becoming a complementary platform for digital services alongside traditional fixed PCs. In some instances and for growing proportion of purchases, smartphones are the leading digital device.
GfK ConnectedLIfe.dx is a global study launched to measure cross device usage. We are building panels of smartphone owners across four major markets: UK, US, China and Germany. By combining online mobile and PC behavioural data with attitudinal metrics, GfK can provide powerful insights that will help businesses optimise:
Working in close partnership with GfK’s Digital Market Intelligence (DMI) team, the Internet Advertising Agency (IAB) has released research which examines the ways in which consumers are using their mobile, tablets and PCs to research and purchase products and services, and the role each device plays along the purchase journey.
