Android 4.4 KitKat is now running on 13.6 percent devices
Every month, the Android Developers website release the operating system versions percentage. It shows the percentage of devices running various versions of the Android operating system. This month's results post a decent picture, at least for Android 4.4 KitKat. According to the latest figures, Android 4.4 Kitkat is running on 13.6 percent of the devices. Last month, Android 4.4 KitKat was running on 8.5 percent Android devices, so yes, it's a pretty big jump.
Several KitKat powered devices have hit the retail shelves lately, and a few OEMs have rolled out the chocolatey update for their existing handsets as well. This could be one of the reasons for a sharp increase.
As far as the older operating systems are concerned, Android Jelly Bean is running on 58.4 percent devices, down from almost 61 percent. But, there's a good thing here as well: Android 4.3 has seen an increase in its market share. It was running on 8.5 percent devices last month, which rose to 10.1 percent this month.
As far as older versions are concerned, Android Froyo is running on 8.8 percent of the devices, while the good old Gingerbread still runs on over 14 percent Android device - the number has declined compared to last month, but it still is pretty high.
