Abstract
The growing popularity of smartphones is undoubtedly one, if not the most important factor in widening the administrative application process for smartphone use. The widespread use of smartphones has changed the way that people communicate, which has also allowed governments the opportunity to create a new channel alongside traditional ways of connecting with citizens. In my opinion, people are less and less likely to use their smartphones to make phone calls classically, but instead to connect via email, social media services (e.g. Facebook, Twitter, etc.) and use their smartphone features, applications to manage their daily tasks (e.g. banking transactions). Therefore, I believe that m-administration (mobile/smartphone-based) can be a much more convenient way for the state and public administrations to connect with citizens. In this study, I intend to study mobile applications for administrative purposes made by the European Union and a V4 country, Hungary.
