see a graph comparing the adoption of the iOS 7 and Android 4.4 KitKat after the first month available. The data demonstrate the serious problem of updates today persists in Android.
A month after his arrival, on Android Developers Blog have been posted adoption figures Android 4.4 KitKat , who remain at 1.1%. The previous version, Android 4.3, reaches 4.2% share. Distant figures than desirable, especially considering that Gingerbread is present in 1 in 4 Android devices, it holds a market share of 24.1%. The other versions of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is the most widespread with 37.4%, which should appear pride and satisfaction for fans of the platform, but in reality it is not so: we speak of a version year and a half old. Which follows, Gingerbread, is three years.
Few graphics are so clarification
At the other end, iOS. After the first month that iOS 7 was available to update, it reached a market share of 71%. The comparison is devastating: in 1000 a month after Android 4.4 Android KitKat 11 had it installed. And in 1000 a month after iPhone iOS 7 710 had it installed , according to Fortune. iOS 6 accounts for virtually the rest, while previous versions (two years or more) are residual and virtually nonexistent. The comparative graphic makes these figures may draw attention to the role are flagrant as shown visually:
It has long been hearing that Android updates are a problem to be overcome, to devise creative solutions and devices will be updated very shortly. It has not been. In fact, at some point it has even worsened. For example, the delay KitKat for Android 4.4 Nexus 4 , that being a recent Nexus would receive the update immediately. The format is impossible to implement iOS in Android, but it should reach a workable formula that updates at least for the Nexus that even already the standard of these. Including the Galaxy Nexus that is out of Android 4.4 KitKat. Will we ever solve the problem is
