We ask worldwide leaders from across mHealth: what will the next decade bring?
The last decade saw the start of the smartphone revolution. Ten years ago, the iPhone was just three years old, around a quarter of us owned a smartphone, and the term mHealth was first coined. 2020 sees the start of a new decade where 79% of us own a smartphone, and 100% of those ages 16 to 24 have access to the internet via a smartphone. 327,000 health apps have been created and 5 million health apps are downloaded every day.
