Statistics of different iOS versions for May. Interesting statistics: which iPhone is the most current?

In old firmware before iOS 9.0, the iPhone had a wonderful item: Settings - General - Statistics. This section showed in detail the memory usage of different programs. It was immediately possible to understand which programs took up how much space. I used this item very often, especially when there was not enough memory in the device.

At one point I noticed that the item had disappeared. I searched everything in the General Settings, but I still couldn’t find it. I even decided that Apple decided to remove this information, even though it is important for many.

After reading a little on the Internet about new firmware, I found what I needed. It turns out that the Statistics item was moved to another section and called it completely differently. Now all information about programs is located in the Settings - General - Storage and iCloud section. Now it's called that.

In this menu item, you can manage memory both directly on your phone and memory in your iCloud cloud.

Try it, perhaps it’s high time to conduct an audit of forgotten and unnecessary programs.

Today we will not give further subjective opinions of individual people about who is the queen of mobile operating systems. Disputes between fans of the bitten apple and the green robot often lose sight of such an important thing as facts. What do the facts say?

Whose smartphones sell better in the US

Despite the fact that the American market is very far from us, it is still one of the largest in the world, which means it makes a decisive contribution to the global distribution of smartphone sales, so let's start with it. In mid-November 2012, Kantar Worldpanel Comtech presented data on sales of smartphones on Android and iPhone, and then the shares of these OSes turned out to be 51.2% and 43.5%, respectively. Despite subsequent jumps in performance, as competitors took turns rushing into first place, the overall picture between November 2012 and February 2013 remained unchanged:

Next comes a study from ComScore MobiLense, which took into account all smartphone users over 13 years of age. Important note: here the statistics do not go for a period, but cover the entire past up to the current moment. That is, over the years of development and distribution of smartphones, by January 2013 the ratio of Android and iOS owners in the United States looks like this:

Whose smartphones are selling better around the world?

We have dealt with the USA, and now the figures that are more important from the point of view of objectivity are global indicators. According to IDC, in the fourth quarter of 2012, Android accounted for 70.1% of all smartphones sold, while Apple accounted for 21%.

Whose tablets are selling better around the world?

Who sells more in the world

Of all the variety of Android smartphone manufacturers, we single out only Samsung as the only “dominator”. The rest of the Android manufacturers go like “and Co.,” but they all also make Android devices. Here's how things stood in the 4th quarter of 2012 on a global scale.

Who sells more in the USA?

Strategy Analytics reported that in the 4th quarter of 2012, Apple won the American market by a small margin.

Who makes more money

Data based on Canaccord Genuity research. In fact, this point has little to do with operating systems, but still.

Who has more apps?

Even if company X released the best OS in the world tomorrow, it still wouldn't attract anyone until it could boast an app store... a big app store. Please note that by now both operating systems have more than 800 thousand applications, and with such a number, further comparison is generally pointless - both have everything you could want.

We will not write anything about the ratio of applications tailored for tablets, because we could not find the necessary data on Android.

Who has the best apps?

The uTest company collects ratings and reviews of all applications from the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. The data is then transferred to a 0-100 scale, and by January 2013 the situation was like this:

In other words, the average overall iOS app is 5.3% better than the Android app.

Which OS users download more apps?

Canalys provides statistics according to which in the first quarter of 2013, every second application downloaded was an Android application.

Who makes more money from apps

Money again - again Apple is out of competition. Data from Canalys for the first quarter of 2013:

Who is there more on the Internet?

NetMarketShare publishes monthly reports on the shares of various operating systems and browsers on the Internet, including mobile ones:

And this is where funny things begin. Research from StatCounter suggests that in March 2013, there was more Android on the Internet than iOS.

Perhaps the whole point is in the incorrectness of the information collection technologies used by this or that company, but in general the moral is this: do not believe the statistics.

Who is there more in the business sector?

Citrix showed the distribution of mobile OS in the corporate sector for the 4th quarter of 2012:

Bottom line

What's the result? We see that in various aspects the advantage passes from one giant to another, and it is still not possible to give an objective answer to the eternal question. Topic closed?

The current iOS operating system for iPhone smartphones and iPad tablets was released last September. As of May 31, it is installed on 81% of devices on which it can be installed.

Apple regularly releases updates and analyzes statistics based on the App Store. This is exactly how the result of 81% was obtained for iOS 11. The previous version of iOS 10 has lost half of its users since February. Now it is available on only 14% of devices. Even earlier versions account for 5% of users.

This is great news for the company. Most users switched to the latest version of the system less than a year after its release. The good news doesn't end there. At the developer conference, the company announced that all devices that received iOS 11 will also receive iOS 12.

This will be the largest update in history, even the iPhone 5S will have iOS 12 installed. This version is aimed at optimizing performance and eliminating bugs, and the speed of launching applications will be increased.

iOS 11 is now available for installation on all 64-bit iPhones and iPads; 32-bit devices like the iPhone 5C and iPad Mini are not compatible. We can say that their support has been discontinued.

System innovations

In the latest version, users saw small changes, such as a redesigned control center and notifications, additional photo effects, etc. As for new features, P2P transactions have appeared in the Apple Pay system, the Files application. It also has the ARKit framework, which allows developers to create augmented reality programs.

The app store has changed. Programs have become easier to find, there is an editor's choice display, the most popular applications and reviews allow you to make a choice. The new Today tab is updated every day and displays the apps and games of the day.

Although many devices were updated, the system was not without flaws. During the first months after the release, users complained about some problems, which were gradually corrected.

Apple produces its own hardware and software, which is why the latest version is being distributed so quickly. Android cannot even dream of such high values, since there are hundreds of manufacturers and a lot also depends on the telecom operators.
