But while there is a lot of speculation and anecdotal evidence around mobile application developer needs and requirements, there has been little actual data from developers to give a clear picture of how they view the market. Ovum's first mobile application developer survey provides a view of the trends in this nascent but fast-growing market, based on in-depth interviews with developers." |
