ββπ€³ The Story of Stories
According to a VidMob survey conducted among a thousand 16-24-year-olds in the US, #Snapchat (73%) edges #Instagram (70%) for consumption of Stories. However, the gap in #GenZ's content creation for Stories is a lot bigger on these platforms where Snapchat (58%) is way ahead of Instagram (39%).
For #Millennials, however, the story is a bit different. According to the accompanying survey of a thousand 25-34-year-olds, they seem to prefer Instagram (58%) instead of Snapchat (53%) for story consumption. But just like their younger counterparts, Snapchat (34%) is their platform of choice when it comes to creating stories compared to Instagram (31%) or #Facebook (20%).

ββπ± Smartphone Usage: Adults vs. Teens
Many of us are concerned about the amount of time we spend online, but surprisingly, it's not just adults that are increasingly self-aware of the dangers of excessive screen time. More than half (54%) of teens in the survey expressed a similar concern compared to about a third (36%) of adults surveyed.

ββπΊ Facebook Watch
A year after launching #FacebookWatch in the United States πΊπΈ, #Facebook announced that itβs making the video-on-demand platform available everywhere.
Although the global rollout is a logical next step, a recent study suggests that the service hasnβt really made an impact in the U.S. yet.
According to a survey conducted by The Diffusion Group, nearly 3 in 4 adult Facebook users in πΊπΈ havenβt used the service yet. More importantly though, 50% of the respondents have never even heard of Facebook Watch despite its presence on the social networkβs navigation bar.

ββπ£ The State of Chinese Voice Assistants
China is the second-largest consumer market in the world, hitting $4.3T in consumer expenditure in 2016 alone (for reference, the US ranked first with $12.5T, and Japan third with $2.7T).
The Chinese smart home market will reach nearly $23B in 2018, according to Juniper Research. #SmartSpeakers and #AI voice assistants are becoming an integral part of that.
Now that smart speakers are becoming commonplace, the early entrant, #Amazon, is losing its market share β and not just to its rival #Google, but to newer players emerging in China.
