Mobile applications for the tourism sector

The smartphone in the tourism sector

Internet users use their smartphone to search for information. They can therefore use their cell phones for tourism. Today, 20% of worldwide sales in the tourism sector are made via mobile (2).

According to a study by Digitalscobe (1), cell phones are playing an increasingly important role in our daily lives. As they do, the options and number of functionalities increase. 50% of cell phone users use their phone as their main tool for accessing the Internet. At the same time, 80% of time spent on the mobile is spent using applications.

NetDevices introduces you to two applications developed in the tourism sector.
