The state of the art of mobile application usability evaluation

Mobile devices and applications provide significant advantages to their users, in terms of portability, location awareness, and accessibility. A number of studies have examined usability challenges in the mobile context, and proposed definitions of mobile application usability and methods to evaluate it. This paper presents the state of the art of the evaluation and measurement of mobile application usability.
