BEIJING - China is boasting a promising mobile map market, with the number of users estimated to reach 600 million by the end of 2015, said a report released by market researcher Analysys International on Wednesday.

Mobile map clients will account for about 64.6 percent of all mobile phone users, said the report.

The report said it is now a key time for mobile map application providers to attract more users by upgrading their services and products.

By the end of June, the average number of daily active mobile map users in China had reached 5.54 million, or only 2.4 percent of mobile phone users.

The total number of mobile map users is expected to hit 287 million by the end of the year, the report said.
