Identifying what mobile applications users will want to use in the future is difficult. This paper presents a scenario based approach for investigating the interest that users have in thirteen future mobile applications. The paper also examines eleven constructs to determine how they impact interest in the scenarios. The subjects surveyed in the research were located in five countries: the U.S., Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France. The results show that certain future applications are of more interest than others and that this interest is fairly consistent across the countries studied. The results also show that most of the constructs positively impact interest in the scenarios.

Abstract
Identifying what mobile applications users will want to use in the future is difficult. This paper presents a scenario based approach for investigating the interest that users have in thirteen future mobile applications. The paper also examines eleven constructs to determine how they impact interest in the scenarios. The subjects surveyed in the research were located in five countries: the U.S., Italy, Spain, Portugal, and France. The results show that certain future applications are of more interest than others and that this interest is fairly consistent across the countries studied. The results also show that most of the constructs positively impact interest in the scenarios.
