Google released their distribution figures for the month of April. The percent of devices running on Lollipop is 9.7%, where it almost doubled when we compared it to the 5.4% from the previous month statistics. It may not surprise because all the latest flagships released are running on Lollipop and many other companies released the Lollipop updates for their devices.
Devices running on previous versions of Android dropped slightly. Kitkat decreased to 39.8% from the 41.4%, where Jellybean dropped to 39.2% from 40.7%. The versions of Android running on less than 0.1% of devices are not included in the list. Android 2.2 Froyo has a low percent of 0.3%, in the coming few months we may not see Froyo including in the list. Android 2.3 Gingerbread accounts for 5.7% of the devices and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich has 5.3% of active devices running.
Kitkat tops the list with more number of active devices, and Jellybean stands next to it with a margin of 0.6%. Lollipop stands third with its 9.7%; it can’t get a big pie in the circle whereas 80% of the Apple devices run on the latest software.
