    pretty sure they weren’t talking about smart phones exclusively:

    mobile device ≠ smart phone

    could be anything from smart watches, to portable gaming, to health trackers/monitors, baby monitors, etc.

    when you add everything up, it’s probably somewhere around 75-85%

    although i tried to search for a better number than a guesstimate and…yeah that’s borderline impossible; all the results get spammed with smart phone OS numbers and google thinks it’s smart to ignore search parameters…

    maybe someone with better google-fu can get a better number: i just took the average smart phone number and added a couple percent on top.

    99% is an exaggeration, but 75-85% sounds about right!

    especially once you factor in things like raspberries and other small IoT devices, which could reasonably fall under “mobile” devices…but then the definition of “mobile” gets murky…
