It also revealed:
* 81 per cent want more film information available to view on their smartphones
* 70 per cent of users are interested in seeing trailers on their devices
* 67 per cent spend at least one hour per day surfing the web on their smartphone
* 53 per cent have used their device to follow up on a TV ad while 42 per cent have done the same for a poster ad
* A quarter of these users have downloaded a specific app for researching new movies
The study looked at smartphone users in the UK, Germany and France.
