"If you have a smartphone, you presumably already realise how integral it is to your daily routine. In the morning, we check our messages and emails and catch up on the day's news. Before going to bed, we use our phones to watch our favourite TV shows and browse social media. We use our smartphones to carry out even the most basic chores, including paying bills, checking the weather, and getting directions to a location. However, in recent years, smartphones have also grown in popularity as a platform for online purchasing.
