    A leaked Facebook magazine was obtained by TechCrunch that touches on first ever breakdown of international mobile use. The verdict? Facebook’s mobile adoption is quite healthy with most countries up over the 50% mark of total mobile users.

    Previous reports clumped this data by region, but this glimpse shows the breakdown across 7 countries. The report breaks down both the Daily Active Users (DAU) and Monthly Active Users (MAU).

      25 Million monthly active users (18 Million MAU on mobile)
    • France
      63% of French Internet users are on Facebook
      18 Million daily active users (11 Million DAU on mobile)
      26 Million monthly active users (117 Million MAU on mobile)
