Apple's App Store Usage Numbers Suggest 46% Adoption Rate for iOS 8Roughly a week after its initial release,
iOS 8 is now installed on 46% of devices connected to the App Store, according to the latest numbers posted on
Apple's App Store developer support page (via
iClarified). The numbers also indicate that 49% of users are using iOS 7 while 5% of users are on older versions of iOS.
Earlier this month, Apple's analytics
indicated that 92% of devices connected to the App Store were using iOS 7, while 7% were using iOS 6 and 1% were on earlier versions of the mobile operating system. In December 2013, iOS 7 usage was at
74 percent, which jumped to
78 percent later that month. In
late January, iOS 7 usage was at 80% and then scaled to
85% in March.
iOS 8 was released last Tuesday and brought several new features like Continuity, third-party keyboards, interactive notifications and more. However, a number of users have
experienced a variety of problems with the operating system's initial release, including irregular battery drain, slow Wi-Fi, app crashes, and more.
