In other words, if a mobile device user does not download your app, they are going to do so with someone else's app, which should stir your motivation to appeal your product to any and every mobile device user. In case you still doubt the concept, here is precisely why mobile device users need your app.

You need to make sure your app is awesome at kickball. Not literally, but figuratively speaking, of course. You must make sure that when mobile device users look at all of the options to choose from in your app's category that they pick yours first. The only difference between a user's selection and playing kickball at recess is that a mobile device user is likely only going to make one pick, so instead of feeling good about being picked second or third, such an achievement is the same as coming in last.
