The tablet has not replaced one single device, just adopted roles and tasks from many of them. The device that it has most usurped is the laptop/PC
Apple's premium priced iPad was so dominant that the profile was skewed older and wealthier, which is still true today
Who Is Using Tablets and What For?New Behaviours
Tablet news readers are about 65% more likely to be AB and 35% C2DE adults.

Who Is Using Tablets and What For?News Consumption and Advertising
• Currently about 20% of tablet users spend over half an hour a day accessing news content* - this will rise as consumers become more confident
• Usage is currently focused on the home and in the evenings – which extends news consumption later into the day
Advertising
• What does this mean for the reader?– Ads are seen as more acceptable– Tablet users are in favour of ad-funded content with lower upfront costs
• What does this mean for the advertiser?– Tablets are a hugely more responsive medium (with click through rates of
around 7% compare to less than 0.1 for online ads*)

Ad Formats and OpportunitiesPointers on Creative Approach
5 points to
remember
1. Beware over-complicating things for the reader if using rich media or animations
2. Interstitial ads can be highly effective – full colour, high definition, and they have the whole screen to themselves
3. If readers are clicking through to a landing page/jump page, make sure it is as engaging as the ad, and optimised for tablet users
4. Creative approach should acknowledge that readers are not always connected to the internet
5. Above all, keep the reader experience in mind

Where App Campaigns Fit In the Media MixFour Questions To Ask About A Campaign Plan and Pointers
Tablets offer a huge range of innovative creative opportunities that really engage the reader
Offers advertisers the powerful brand context of the news title as well as audio-visual advantages-colour, movement, interactivity, rich content etc.
Brands have more opportunities to find consumer touchpoints and extend messaging into different times of the day
Monthly growth in readers and high interaction, means content and advertising should make newsbrand tablet apps a valuable part of the media mix

• Cookies are not dropped onto mobile apps the way they are onto computers using web browsers – this creates a fundamental difference between web analytics and tablet analytics
• Analytics software is usually included in app’s operations –Flurry and SiteCatalyst are two widely used examples – so data is captured about the way advertising is consumed
• So you can:– Learn how when and where the ad is accessed– Segment acquired users in terms of value, demographics and usage– Identity best segments and create improved brand engagement
• Confusion is offline behaviour – the analytics software will still continue to gather data and store it in cache memory, but it will not be uploaded back to the software until the app is updated
