The analysis is based on over one million individual application sessions from 3000+ panel members in the US. The results are powered by Strategy Analytics' state-of-the-art Telemetry Intelligence Platform by leveraging three core components – a best-in-class telemetry application, an opt-in panel, and big data analytics framework to support rich analysis.

Additional findings from the study include:

Bonny Joy, Chief, Consumer Telemetry Platforms, said:  "Over the past four quarters, there has been a significant shift in traffic priorities by application categories. The fact that social now accounts for the majority of the traffic for most users underscores the increasing reliance of social apps, such as Facebook, Tumblr, and Vine for rich media experience."

Barry Gilbert, Vice President, said: "The rise in data traffic, especially among the older demographics, presents new opportunities for Operators and Device OEMs in offering differentiated services through content partnerships, data plans, and portfolio expansion to address the growing interest in content consumption.
