Abstract	Through a semi-structured survey of mobile journalists (N = 433), the study investigated mobile journalists' learning needs and learner experiences related to their digital skills development with smartphones. Results indicate that not only novice journalism students but also experienced educators, professionals, or mass communication and media workers had a high level of demands on developing specific digital skills, especially skills with smartphones, such as writing better headlines and stories for mobile audiences, shooting and editing 360° videos, and programming skills such as HTML. Recommendations are made for future research that mobile journalists indicated mobile microlearning is a promising approach to support their just-in-time learning. (As Provided).
