The online, connected digital universe that accesses the internet via PC and mobile devices is growing, and will
continue to grow as device adoption, multiple device ownership, and access to faster network connections develop
around the globe. Consumers are becoming increasingly comfortable moving across a number of devices to stay
connected and consume content. In fact, consumers often complete tasks and consume media across multiple
devices throughout a single day.
As a result, the intersection of these trends has changed the way users connect. Now, the next phase in this
evolution is how brands become more strategic with mobile and“chase the rabbit,”aligning advertising and
messaging when users“hop”from device to device.
The challenge for marketers is to understand how to communicate effectively with today’s cross-screen customers
and uncover the right opportunities to reach them. This report is designed to educate brands and marketers on the
new world of cross-screen users; who they are, the types of content they are consuming, and how they are most
likely to use a specific device (over another). The statistics and data are becoming quite compelling for a mobile-led
world. For example, of women aged 25-49, 80% are cross-screen users and 11% are mobile-only users, making this
demographic the largest spending time on mobile.
Takeaway:
We live in a world of multi-screens, multi-platforms, and multi-devices – from smartphones to connected TVs to
phablets to wearables – and new users and applications are emerging to help maintain the growth of how we are
connecting with consumers in new ways. The messaging and marketing across these devices still needs to be clear,
consistent, and engaging. Because, however you refer to it, it’s still about creating consistent experiences,
independent of the mediums we use in our daily lives.
The insights here are based upon analysis of mobile measurement firm comScore’s Multi-Platform product, and
Millennial Media’s global platform observations across thousands of mobile ad campaigns.

5. Time spent across devices varies by content. For some categories, the majority of time spent
is on PC, while other content is accessed on mobile first. Regardless of the mix of devices,
digital users are accessing all types of content across different screens.
Six content categories see 50% or more of their time from mobile devices. Based on 2013 data, Retail content was previously
accessed via primarily PC, but recently crossed over to see the majority of time spent in this category on mobile. Health, News,
