Abstract

The evolution of electronic technology, the introduction of new materials and the emergence of mobile networks and cloud technology accelerated the revolution associated with the usage of mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets) opening room for pervasive or ubiquitous computing. The paper will focus mainly on the type of mobile device applications that are used by people daily, ranging from leisure to productivity applications, and address their innovative potential, analyzing the opportunities offered and also the challenges placed for users, lawmakers, developers, and for the human-factors community.
