Abstract

Smartphones are central to everyday activities. Paired with short distance radio technologies the range of smartphone application is extended and development of “smarter” services is enabled. A trial, including 60 pilot users, shows that the smartphone itself and its capability to emulate transaction and access cards are highly valued. In order to meet expectations adaptive and personalized features/services should be added, based on knowledge of the individual users’ activities and communicated needs, as well as their curiosity for new adventures.
