In a previous mobile application analytics study, Localytics found that while smartphone and tablet owners are very willing to give applications a try, 26 percent of the time they never use the same application again.
In its latest study, Localytics found that another 26 percent of people become very loyal, repeat customers, using a new application more than 10 times.
It is probably worth noting that both "loyalty" and "disinterest" have to be kept in some perspective. Some apps might intentionally be designed around a specific promotion or event, and might not be intended to have a long shelf life.
Some apps are games and users might tire of some games rather quickly. What the data seems to suggest is that a quarter or so of mobile apps are highly engaging or useful, another quarter are not, with half lying in between. But nearly half (48 percent get used three times or less), suggesting there also is a lot of experimentation going on.

Hi Friends,
IP is a basic communication language or protocol widely used in the Internet or a private network. It is a data-oriented protocol used for communicating data. IP focused on a variety of cost-saving and productivity benefits, with little emphasis on the advantages of a more flexible system design. Thanks.
