Mobile Learning is already pervasive. At the exact moment when these words are written, the world is experiencing a pandemic that forces a good portion of people to stay at home, a situation that should foster the learning that takes place through digital devices. The central theme of this work is exactly this type of learning, more specifically the learning that occurs through smartphones. Starting from teaching by the dialectical method in the ancient Greece of Socrates, Plato and Aristotle, mankind later learned, in medieval times, the scholastic method, according to which the teacher is the holder of all knowledge. Thus, whether in Ancient Times or in the Middle Ages, the dissemination of knowledge did not have support tools. Also in this sense, the invention of the press in the 15th century by Gutenberg was a milestone, as it played an important role in the dissemination of knowledge from then on, due to the possibility of the reproduction of books. Almost six centuries have passed and since the early 2000s we are experiencing our growing dependence on smartphones. Among a range of tasks, we have teaching / learning. What relevance will smartphones have in helping to spread learning? Would it be too much to compare to the relevance that the Gutemberg press had centuries ago? We don't know, the course of time will respond. This work was developed in order to portray the state of the art of Mobile Learning through the world, analyzing some recent cases, which were selected in the CAPES Journal Portal. The cases were analyzed with a practical focus, seeking to identify the benefits, difficulties and lessons learned from the experiences, without losing sight of important learning theories, which are discussed in chapter 1
