Mobile apps represent a wealth of opportunity for investors with an interest in technology stocks. The ubiquity of mobile devices and their prominence in everyday life has led to the development of mobile apps for everything from gaming and dating to banking and stock trading. Mobile apps began rising to prominence in 2007 with the launch of iPhone, which heralded a new era in connectivity brought about by revolutionary touch technology. The diversity of today’s offerings makes investing in mobile apps an appealing prospect. With nearly 3 million apps in Google’s (NASDAQ:GOOGL) Google Play Store, and nearly 2 million apps available in Apple’s (NASDAQ:APPL) App Store, there is no shortage of app choices for mobile devices.
