The role of smartphones is changing from a communication system for exchanging calls and information into a universal platform for cultural services. Also, satisfaction for mobile application services on smartphones is a very important factor in the smart business. In This paper, we analyze the effects of the outcome, service scape, costs, and especially the impact of whether costumers having to pay or free for the app on customer satisfaction. For this purpose, we analyzed survey data on service quality of mobile app service from Chinese mobile app service users. We also analyzed the moderating effects of paid and free mobile app services. As a result, it was confirmed that the quality, servicescape quality and cost of mobile app service that customers perceive have a positive effect on customer satisfaction. In addition, the effect of the cost of mobile app service perceived by the customer on customer satisfaction showed that free mobile app service was more significant than paid mobile app service. This paper can be used as an alternative to monetization for providing a mobile app service provider or a mobile app service provider who wants to switch mobile app service from free to paid service.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the effect of service convenience on customer satisfaction and reuse intention by 200 passengers using a Korail talk app. The result of the analysis showed that service convenience was positively correlated with satisfaction in Korail customers using the Korail talk app. Also, customer satisfaction with service convenience had a positive effect on reuse intention in these users. However, service convenience was not significantly correlated with customer's reuse intention. The results of this study suggest that it is important for Korail to offer improved service convenience for Korail talk app users consistently in order to improve customer satisfaction and reuse intention by Korail passengers.

The purpose of this study is to introduce the concepts of smartphone and app, to review the theoretical researches and the representative service examples in academic libraries' mobile services based on smartphone apps, and to propose the proper mobile services methods based on smartphone apps in academic libraries of Korea. The ways for mobile app services in academic libraries are like these: 1) Libraries need to prepare the hybrid service system based on the combination of mobile web and app for smartphone. 2) Libraries have the guidelines for choosing apps which are applied to library services. 3) Libraries develop the apps for library marketing and education services and make use of existed apps to their own services. 4) Smartphone application bibliography service(Appography service) needs to be developed and serviced as an academic library service field.

애플이 소유한 '앱스토어' 상표권에 마이크로소프트(MS)가 제동을 걸었다. 애플리케이션의 부가가치가 높아지면서 앱스토어 개념이 애플에 종속되는 것을 막기 위해서다. MS가 미국 특허상표청(USPTO)에 앱스토어 상표권이 일반 명칭이며 경쟁자들이 이용할 수 있도록 허용돼야 한다는 취지의 소송을 제기했다고 PC월드 레지스터 등이 11일(현지시각) 전했다. 애플은 지난 2008년 앱스토어를 '인터넷, 컴퓨터 및 전자통신 네트워크를 통해 공급되는 컴퓨터 소프트웨어(SW)의 소매상점 서비스'로 규정해 상표권 등록을 마쳤다. 이후 '아이폰'을 위한 앱스토어를 열어 30만 개가 넘는 애플리케이션이 등록되는 등 큰 성공을 거두면서 애플리케이션 장터의 대명사로 자리매김했다. 애플은 이달 초 맥PC를 위한 '맥 앱스토어'도 선보였다. 이에 대해 MS는 '앱'은 앱스토어에서 판매되는 상품 및 서비스를 가리키는 일반적인 용어고, '스토어'는 소매상점 서비스를 나타내는 일반명사라고 주장했다. 또 애플 최고 경영자(CE) 스티브 잡스가 한 언론 인터뷰에서 "아마존, 버라이즌, 보다폰은 모두 안드로이드를 위한 자체 앱스토어를 구축하고 있다"고 언급한 부문을 들어 애플 자신도 앱스토어를 일반 명칭으로 사용하고 있다고 강조했다. MS는 "소비자와 업계, 미디어들이 모두 앱스토어를 애플리케이션이 판매되는 온라인 상점으로 여기고 있다"면서 "앱스토어라는 이름을 애플이 배타적으로 활용해서는 안 된다"고 밝혔다. MS는 지난해 말 윈도폰7 운영체계(OS)를 위한 온라인 스토어 '마켓플레이스'를 개설했다. IDC는 마켓플레이스에 두 달 만에 4,000여 개의 애플리케이션이 등록됐다고 집계했다.

Domestic delivery app services are taking a leap forward as the non-face-to-face culture spreads due to the COVID 19 situation and the industrial scale is also growing. In the expanding delivery app service market, we try to verify the structural relationship between variables by empirically analyzing the influencing factors of users' trust in rational and emotional factors. Delivery app service users trust and discriminate parameters in the relationship between rational and emotional factors. Satisfaction according to the trust of a valid delivery app service and service expansion model through word of mouth was designed. It was verified through a hypothesis whether it had an effect, and it can be used as a variety of service strategies for delivery app service users.

Real estate brokerage app service is an emerging online-to-offline (O2O) business model. This study analyze the relationship between the satisfaction and reuse of real estate app services through a survey of experienced users of the application. The results show that "ease of use" and "usefulness" of the online app service positively affect customer satisfaction and eventually affects reuse. Moreover, ease of use and usefulness of the offline brokerage introduced by the application positively affects customer satisfaction and eventually affects reuse too. One meaningful finding is the stronger impact of usefulness on customer satisfaction than that of ease of use in both online and offline situations. This finding implies that the value of usefulness is bigger than that of ease of use because of users who purposely use the application to find relevant real estates. The effect of online customer satisfaction on reuse is slightly higher than that of offline. This finding suggests that need to develop a strategy for online applications that focuses on enhancing the usefulness of real estate brokerage app services in the O2O market.

모바일 앱 환경에서의 광고는 앱 내부에 배너형, 팝업 형 등 다양한 형태의 광고를 띄우고, 사용자의 터치를 유도하는 등의 방법으로 광고 수익이 발생한다는 특징이 있다. 하지만, 악의적 광고주 또는 공격자는 이러한 특징을 악용해 앱 내에서의 정당한 광고를 다른 광고로 바꾸거나, 사용자에게 의도되지 않는 광고를 노출하는 등의 광고 인젝션을 발생시킨다. 광고 인젝션은 광고주에겐 수익 저하, 서비스 제공자에겐 서비스의 품질 저하, 서비스 이용자에겐 불편함을 야기하는 등 문제가 된다. 모바일 앱 환경에서의 광고 인젝션에 대한 연구 및 탐지 방법에 대한 연구는 몇몇 진행되었으나, 미진한 상황이다. 본 연구에서는 모바일 환경에서의 광고 인젝션 탐지를 위한 광고 인젝션 앱만의 특징 수집을 위해 광고 인젝션 앱, 특히 사용자가 많은 안드로이드 환경에서의 앱을 분석하는 방법을 제시한다.
