TAIPEI, Oct. 23, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Appier, a leading marketing technology company, published Asia's first cross-screen research report today, providing insights into how users interact on multiple devices. This is the first report of its kind as it is based on actual user behaviour data from Appier campaigns in H1 2014.

"The report reveals how incredibly complex the modern marketing environment is, as well as the growing importance of cross-screen targeting in the marketing mix as consumers spend more time on multiple devices. Appier's technology allows marketers to deliver highly personalized, relevant and well-timed content to people on the right device. At the end of the day, ensuring that great user experience is what adds value," said Chih-Han Yu, co-founder and CEO at Appier.

The report is based on data from Appier campaigns run in 10 markets[1] across Asia in the first half of 2014. Based on real user behaviours and patterns across different devices, the report includes the following findings:

  • Cross-screen is becoming increasingly important given the diverse user behaviours and patterns across devices.
  • Consumer preference for screen size is shifting towards the middle; there is a growing number of larger mobile phones and smaller tablets.
  • Rich media ads perform better than other ad formats in Asia in general.
