The document discusses the evolution of smart applications beyond mobile phones. It notes that the mobile app market is oversaturated, most apps get deleted after one or two uses, and people only regularly use a small number. This signals the golden age of mobile apps is over in terms of impact and ROI. It then introduces smart voice applications for large screens like TVs as the next stage, which are more natural and frictionless to use than apps. Key advantages are being hands-free without downloading anything, using natural language. Integrating voice AI with existing smart TV infrastructure opens new possibilities for businesses, ecommerce, and social experiences.
3. The Mobile Ecosystem Today - The Evolving Landscape
The mobile app stores have become saturated and extremely noisy. Why?
- 2.2 million apps on the Apple App Store and 2.8 million apps on the android app store!
- These days, people are more reluctant to install your apps.
- Once they do install an app, if it requires them to think or do too much, they won’t use it.
- Vast majority of apps that do get installed by users, get deleted after one or two uses. A
significant percentage gets deleted within 1 - 2 weeks.
- Even if your app remains installed in a phone, it’s unlikely to be used. Most people only
use a very small number of apps that are on their phone.
Bottom line: The golden years of mobile apps are gone. The benefits. impact and ROI have faded
significantly in recent years. It’s much more difficult to have an impact under current conditions.
