Information on the entry of pager service into Saudi Arabia:
Wide spread (1980s and 1990s): The pager became a commercial device available to the public, and it was the primary means of staying in constant contact with work or home before the spread of mobile phones. In Saudi Arabia, for example, the service officially entered in 1992.
Decline in use (2000s): With the widespread adoption of mobile phones and subsequently smartphones, reliance on pagers for personal use decreased, making it a technology of the past.
• The automated calling device (pager) service was officially launched in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia on 8 Rajab 1412 AH, corresponding to January 12, 1992.
• The service began in its initial stages from Riyadh before expanding to include all regions of the Kingdom and becoming a very popular technological trend in the nineties.
