According to a press release from Telephia today, location-based services generated more than half of all mobile application revenue in the U.S. for the second quarter of this year.

Telephia also reported that:

  • Approximately 13 million mobile consumers downloaded a mobile application on their phone.
  • Of the $118 million in revenue that downloadable mobile applications such as LBS, weather applications, chat/community, and personal organization tools generated during Q2 2007, LBS represented 51 percent.
  • Networks In Motion (NIM)—an LBS navigation publisher for products including Verizon Wireless’ VZ Navigator—secured a 27 percent share of carrier revenue from mobile applications and leads all mobile application publishers. Telenav Mobile followed with a 15 percent share of carrier revenue and is another LBS navigation publisher.
