Do you use most of the apps that you download to your phone or tablet?

If you think about it, when you bought your first smartphone or even your first tablet, one of the first things you probably did was either download or purchase apps to play with on your mobile device. Your not alone. I have even done this. You look for some cool apps for your new toy and you start to experiment on the performance of your mobile device. So you start downloading all these free apps to play with. Now lets move forward about 6 months or so. You start to delete some apps. Now a year, and your thinking “Why did I ever download that app”?  Your not a lone. Research is showing that only about 68% of smart phone users only open about 5 or fewer apps weekly. It’s estimated that around 42% of the population has a phone that contains apps. Don’t believe us, take a look at your phone and count the number of apps that you don’t really use. We bet you might have at least 2 or 3 apps installed that you very rarely ever use.
