Android oreo is already the second most used version

Google already publishes the new Android distribution data, with some changes. In them we can see how Android Oreo continues to advance in the market, since it is positioned as the second most used version of the operating system worldwide. Meanwhile, Android Pie still does not make an appearance on this distribution data.

Android Oreo is already the second most used version

To appear in this distribution data, you need to have 0.1% market share. For the third consecutive time since this data is published, Android Pie still does not appear. A worrying fact for the company.

Android Oreo continues to grow

Android Oreo had had a rather slow growth in the market, but it seems that it has finally gained momentum in these past months, as it has been climbing positions at high speed. Currently, it is already in second position with a 21.5% market share. At the moment, only Android Nougat is ahead, with 28.2%. But the logical thing is that in a little while I will overcome it.

Since we are seeing how versions like Nougat, Marshmallow and Lollipop are losing market share. So now is the time for Android Oreo and Android Pie to grow, although the second is still missing for now, and we are almost in November.

As usual, we will follow the distribution data with interest before the end of the year. Since they may help us see how these versions evolve and if Pie finally appears in them, or continues to generate headaches in Google.
