Active Idle Screen 2009-2011: Who will own the screen?
The active idle screen (aka home screen or phone top) is the synonym of zero-click distance. It is the most premium real-estate on the handset for service delivery and promotion. In this report we review the solutions which offer zero-click access to services, information and promotion on the handset idle screen.
The market of idle screen solutions has grown considerably; in 2002-2006 it was kick-started by active idle screen (AIS) vendors and tier-1 operators; in 2007-2009 it has been capitalised by Apple, HTC, Samsung, LG, Samsung and increasingly Nokia, Android and Windows Mobile; In 2010-2011 it will be elevated into precious real-estate divided between the handset OEM, operator and service providers.
Published by VisionMobile
as part of the Mobile Industry Atlas
The ownership of the idle screen will become as elementary as customer ownership; as ubiquitous as handset branding; and as important a monetisation tool as handset accessories. In this report we examine the market trends and opportunities that will determine the billion-unit question: who will own the screen?
