It claims 2.3 and 2.4 make up for ~75% of the installed base, and the remaining 25% is just a mess.
- briancooley 14y agoThe official dashboard is http://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html http://developer.android.com/about/dashboards/index.html and has been updated fairly often - maybe once a month or so - since ICS released. According to that chart, about 84% of devices that have accessed Google Play are on Froyo or Gingerbread, and another 7% are on ICS. Pretty much all of the phone market is concentrated in Gingerbread and Froyo. I think fewer than 10 types of phone are on ICS.
