in line with the adoption rate of iOS 8. However, in late September Apple announced that the newest version of iOS had the
fastest adoption ever and was on pace to be downloaded by more users than any other version of the mobile operating system. iOS 8 only achieved a 64 percent adoption rate
by December 23 and a 68 percent adoption rate
by January 7, ending up with a high of
87 percent on the eve of iOS 9's launch.
Apple
released the first major update to iOS 9 two weeks ago with iOS 9.1, which featured a slew of brand-new emojis. Since that update, iOS 9 adoption has grown by 5 percent. Earlier today Apple
seeded the second beta for iOS 9.2, the second major update to its newest mobile operating system.
