US Adults Now Spend 12 Hours 7 Minutes a Day Consuming Media
US adults will spend more than half the day with major media
According to eMarketer, thanks to multitasking, US adults’ average daily time spent with major media will slightly exceed 12 hours this year, according to eMarketer’s latest report, “US Time Spent with Media:eMarketer’s Updated Estimates and Forecast for 2014-2019”. But while their reports early in the decade told a story of robust gains—with increases in digital usage more than compensating for declines in time spent with nondigital media—growth has been petering out.
People are often using multiple media at the same time. That is how the figure for time spent can add up to 12 hours a day. And note our method of accounting for simultaneous usage: If someone spends an hour watching TV (for example) and uses a smartphone to surf the web during the same hour, this is counted as an hour of usage for each medium, and hence as 2 hours of total media time. One might have thought average time spent with smartphones by users would decline as the smartphone population broadened far beyond early adopters and technophiles. Instead, average time spent among users has steadily increased.
eMarketer estimates that nonvoice time spent per day by smartphone users will have risen from 2 hours 18 minutes in 2014 to 2 hours 42 minutes by 2019.
The proliferation of apps is clearly a factor in this increase. More and more of the digital universe is designed to cater to smartphones, and this often takes the form of apps. For users of smartphones—and, to a slightly lesser extent, users of tablets—time spent using those devices mostly means time spent using apps. And the preeminence of apps vs the mobile web grows year by year.
Time spent with the mobile web via smartphones is expected to decline throughout the forecast period, while time spent with it via tablets ticks up just slightly. During those same years, in-app time on both devices is expected to grow strongly—though the rate of increase slows in the later years. eMarketer estimates that in-app smartphone time will have increased by 42 minutes per day between 2014 and 2019.

Mobile Pushing Down UK Display Ad Viewability
Q1 was fourth consecutive quarter of below 50% in-view rate
The UK’s already lower-than-average digital display ad viewability rate sank further in the first quarter, and mobile advertising is partly to blame, according to ad measurement firm Meetrics.
In the first three months of 2017, per Cliff Annicelli writing in eMarketer (050417) the proportion of banner ads served in the UK on Meetrics’ platform that met minimum viewability guidelines (that is, 50% in-view for at least 1 second) dropped to 47% from 49% in Q4 2016—the lowest level since Q2 2016 and down from 54% in the first quarter of 2016.
“Declining viewability is partly driven by mobile now accounting for over half of display ad spend but tending to have lower viewability rates than desktop for various reasons,” said Anant Joshi, Meetrics’ commercial director for the UK and Ireland.
“Obviously, the smaller screen size can mean more page scrolling and, thus, more chance of ads being missed lower down a page, plus slower network connection speeds can cause ad loading delays,” he said. “There’s also the legacy issue of desktop ads served on mobile, which don’t format properly, despite the use of responsive design.”
While slower than in years past, mobile display ad spending continues to grow by double-digit rates in the UK. In 2016, it swelled by 48.0% to $3.54 billion (£2.62 billion), and is expected to expand by another 25.5% this year, according to eMarketer’s latest forecast. All told, mobile represented 70.5% of total UK digital display ad spending in 2016, and will be responsible for 76.1% of the total this year.
The UK isn’t the only country in Western Europe witnessing lower display ad viewability. In Q1, Germany recorded a 3 percentage point decline in viewability to 55%—and “all-time low” for that country, according to Meetrics, and a figure down 5 percentage points from a year earlier.
Viewability rates in the other two European markets Meetrics measures—France and Austria—were less clearly in decline. In France, viewability rose 3 points from the prior quarter to 60%, but was down from 66% in Q1 2016. Austria’s rate dipped by 1 point compared with the prior quarter, to 67%, but was up from 65% a year earlier.

Cross-Device Commerce Grows in Australia
Multidevice ownership and mobile commerce are key
Cross-device transactions are playing a greater role in Australia’s ecommerce sector, a trend that’s been helped by the growing popularity of mobile commerce in the country and higher-than-average rates of device ownership.
According to Q4 2016 research by Criteo, cross-device transactions represent a growing proportion of ecommerce activity in the country. More than a third of ecommerce transactions on Criteo’s platform in which smartphones were the primary device were made using two or more devices. More than 40% of transactions in which tablets or desktops were the primary device involved multiple devices.
According to Jeremy Kressmann, writing in eMarketer (050417), the growing rate of cross-device ecommerce activity in Australia is supported by research into multidevice ownership among the country’s consumers.
For example, a study from the first half of 2016 by Appier examined multidevice ownership habits in various countries in Asia-Pacific. A higher proportion of users in Australia who possessed multidevices owned four or more, the highest rate in the region.
Yet another likely factor contributing to the prominence of cross-device purchases in Australia is the growing popularity of mobile commerce. While an expanding share of these mobile-based purchases are completed using devices like smartphones, it’s also likely that more consumers are conducting research on mobile devices before completing their transaction elsewhere.
