This study examines mobile learning adoption and continuance in education literature through bibliometric methods. The metadata of 155 relevant publications was extracted from the Web of Science database and imported into “biblioshiny” for analysis. It was found that Education and Information Technologies has the highest publications, and Computers & Education is the most cited journal. Author analysis revealed that Shakeel Iqbal has the most articles fractionalized. Further, the most cited articles were published in the year 2012. The study revealed an exponential increase in research in the top producers, China and Turkey, since 2019. TAM was found to be the most popular theory among researchers. In addition, interest in self-determination theory has been growing recently. The studies examined limited subjects (language, mathematics, and science). The findings indicated several associated keywords, such as augmented reality, cyberloafing, and virtual reality. The thematic map revealed emerging (e.g., self-regulation), niche (e.g., literacy), motor (e.g., attitude), and basic (e.g., addiction) themes. Further, the conceptual structure map suggested the nuances of difference between the constructs of “intention” and “continuance intention.”
