Typical devices

In a remote study, study participants use their own devices. That variety of devices combined with operating system versions (and, optionally, browser versions) and connectivity speeds is near impossible to match in a lab setting. Imagine a wayfinding app that provides directions to a selected target which is meant to be rolled out globally. A remote, globally distributed study will allow the study sponsor to gather realistic feedback with regards to how the app deals with the connectivity available locally on typical devices.
