The study of sociology and intrinsic human characteristics is reaching new frontiers after getting the access of mobile data sources. They act as a promising source for research in various fields, such as criminology, mobility, disaster management, etc., due to their event-based nature. Despite potential links between mobile datasets and human social behaviors, the research in this domain is limited due to the unavailability of real mobile data. Henceforth, we present a first-in-literature data source, with real spatiotemporal time series for the 68 most used applications in different French metropolitan areas. The data source acts as an ideal solution to the missing puzzle for solving many problems, such as mobility planning, tourist and migrant flows, urban structures and interactions, event detection, and, urban well-being.
