Android Oreo Distribution Increases to 21.5% in October, But Pie Still Below the Chart: Google

Google is out with its Android distribution dashboard for the month of October, and surprisingly enough, Android 9 Pie is nowhere to be seen in the chart. Last year’s Android 8.0 and 8.1 Oreo’s adoption rate has been increased from 19.2% in September to 21.5% in this month. The market adoption for Nougat and Marshmallow and all other previous Android versions seem to have fallen compared to last month.

Android Oreo Share Increase to 21.5%

Google comes out with an Android distribution chart every month, which provides an overview into the adoption rate of all the Android OS versions starting from the much older Marshmallow to the newest Pie. The good news is, Android Oreo’s adoption share has increased from 19.2% in September to 21.5% in October. The distribution chart shows that Android 8.0 Oreo has achieved an adoption rate of 14% this month up from 13.4% in September, while Android 8.1 Oreo has reached to 7.5% in October from 5.8 % in September.

Next comes slightly older Android OS version, Nougat. The distribution chart shows that the adoption share of Android 7.0 has decreased to 18.1% this month from 19% in September. On the other hand, the Android 7.1 Nougat’s share had also dropped 10.1% from 10.3% last month. The scenario remains the same for Android Marshmallow, Lollipop and KitKat as well. The distribution of Android Marshmallow has also dropped to 21.3% in October from 21.6% in September.
