iOS 8 adoption currently sits at 47%, identical to the current share of its predecessor, iOS 7. That's a change of only 1% over the course of the last couple of weeks. iOS 7, by contrast, is believed to have hit over 60% adoption by this time last year.</p> <p><a href='

People with 8 and 16GB iPhone may have trouble finding that space, and may not be familiar enough with updating via iTunes to go that route.</p> <p>Although iOS 7 had its fair share of bugs, including frequent resprings (SpringBoard or Home screen windowing system crashes), iOS 8 has had its own troubles, including a delay in HealthKit and an iOS 8.0.1 update that left tens of thousands of iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 plus owners without Touch ID or cellular access for the 24hrs it took Apple to release iOS 8.0.2.</p> <p>If more people are becoming more cautious about updates in general, it'll be interesting to see at what point the adoption numbers start climbing upwards again.</p> <p>If you're still on iOS 7 and haven't made the jump to iOS 8, what are you waiting for?</p> <p>Source:
