The Radical Growth of the App Economy [INFOGRAPHIC] Since the launch of the first iPhone in 2007, the production and mainstream usage of smartphones has exploded.

The device opened a world of innovation in mobile technology, which was soon followed by a similar boom from apps. Today, we rely on apps to do just about everything, from keeping us organized to pure entertainment. Millions of downloads later, the app economy is as strong as ever. App development has created 466,000 jobs across all available platforms, according to a survey performed by TechNet. This includes local baristas, since many developers rely on coffee shops to get work done. Our friends at Frugal Dad have created this inforgraphic about the economy and how it's been affected by smartphones and apps.

This infographic will point you in the right direction. Let's take a look at the current state of the iPhone 4 and its predecessors, how many apps users have installed, how much they're using the iPhone and what new features they'd like to see in the next one. That should give us a good idea about whether we should upgrade, and why.

This elaborate infographic is part 1 of a three-part series that will lead us up to the launch of the iPhone 5, which is likely to be announced on Oct. 4. Developed by AYTM (Ask Your Target Market) and research firm PaidViewpoint along with Mashable, the survey asked 1,000 U.S. iPhone owners aged 18 years and older an extensive series of questions.

Last week, in part 1 of our 3-part series of iPhone 5 infographics, we dug deep into the question of who is most likely to upgrade. This week, we again tapped the power of our friends at AYTM (Ask Your Target Market) and research firm PaidViewpoint for part 2, illustrating the responses of a questionnaire given to 1,000 iPhone owners aged 18+ living in the U.S. The result?

With the mobile payments market set to explode — Juniper predicts it will reach $670 billion by 2015, while Yankee Group thinks it could hit $1 trillion — it’s worth knowing exactly where different offerings lie. Qui aime le plus les smartphones ? Survey: Cellphones vs. Sex – Which Wins? [INFOGRAPHIC] It's no secret how much most people are attached to their cellphones, but now TeleNav has released a survey showing just how willing Americans are to give up the finer things in life so they can still hang onto that handset.

Think about this hypothetical situation for a moment: What would you be more willing to give up so you could still have your mobile phone? Not only does this infographic give you insight into mobile-device love, but it also helps you sort out general priorities as well. For instance, one third of the U.S. population would rather give up sex for a week than a mobile phone, but 70% were willing to give up alcohol for that phone?

As part of its “Index” infographic series, mobile advertising provider Mobclix has published its latest one that details the performance of mobile gaming apps on the iOS platform. Among the many nuggets of information, some stood out — including the fact that since in-app purchasing has become so popular, developers are focusing more attention on action and arcade games where in-app purchases are a natural fit as consumers look to “level up.”

At this time last year, puzzles held the top spot, but a year later action has overtaken it as the top category in gaming. One of the primary challenges facing mobile game developers and mobile app developers in general is discoverability. To combat the issue, many developers have begun looking at subcategories that are less populated and where there’s less competition. For example, this could be the reason why a category like “Word” that had a market share of 2 percent in 2010 has increased to 4 percent a year later. Photo zoom.
