After a two-month break Google finally reported to-date statistics about the fragmentation of Android. Looking at the embarrassingly poor result of the latest Android 5.1 Lollipop’s not surprising that the Mountain View company does not want to brag about.
Usually once a month Google website publishes statistics on this, how popular among users enjoy specific versions of Android released over the last few years. In July, however, once again, moreover, have never received such data at all.
What with the old androids?
The statistics are published with a view to developers to give them a picture with this, which versions of the green robot should take into account when designing their own mobile applications. Apparently, in July there was no need to publish them, because changing even after two months are small and the table’s been turned upside down.
We are constantly declining number of users expressed as a percentage oldest systems that are in constant use. Finally, the combined result for Android Froyo (0.3 percent.), Gingerbread (4.6 percent.) And Ice Cream Sandwich (4.1 percent.) Fell below the threshold of another – which is exactly 9 percent. when a month ago it was 11 percent.
New most popular Android
So much good that devices running these outdated androids having several years is less than devices with lollipop. For over a year since its first presentation, however, and for 10 months after the official release of the latest iteration of the Google mobile system gives way to two older versions.
The most popular Android is, finally, KitKat. The system bearing the number 4.4 is now 39.3 percent. market shares and this … even more by 0.1 percentage points. than two months ago. A little less rake in for himself three editions of older Android Jelly Bean – systems in versions 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3 to 33.6 percent globally.
Jelly Bean and Lollipop, which is another two places on the podium
Enjoy maybe the fact that all three versions Jelly Bean have smaller shares than two months ago. Accordingly, it is 13 percent. relative to 14.7 percent. Android 4.1, 15.9 per cent as compared to 17.5 per cent. for Jelly Bean 4.2 and only 4.7 percent. in relation to 5.5 percent. for Android 4.3 marked number on it.
As far as the lollipop, the current result of this system is 18.1 percent. This means that you may enjoy it less than every fifth user of Android, though you probably already two months will be an even newer Android M. Digging lying can be noted that this latest Android hit only 2.6 percent. devices.
Of course it is better, because a month ago Lollipop marked number on Android 5.1 was only 0, 8 per cent. market share, but it still does not change the fact that the next Android adoption by the market goes truly a snail’s pace. Lollipop 15.5 percent are users of its first edition, which was not fortunate and live to see a fix.
You can flinch that fragmentation really does not mean anything, and all the important things can be distributed through app store and Google Play Services, but there’s no magic reality – it is not good.
