"less than 0.1 percent of all Android devices were using Lollipop"
I'm surprised by this figure, with the number of Nexus devices that should have auto-upgraded by now. I assume OP is basing this on "Any versions with less than 0.1% distribution are not shown" and Lollipop not being shown, but it seems more likely it hasn't been added yet.
I'm seeing ~7% usage on current installs of my app. It might be disproportionate for some reason, but it's not a new app and I can't imagine it's that skewed.
- dkopi 12y agoUsers are most likely to go out seeking new apps after a major upgrade or buying a new phone. Users with older phones are much less likely to seek new apps
- crumpled 12y agoThis is an assumption?
- JTon 12y agoInteresting. Makes sense, but are you aware of any data to back this up?
- dkopi 12y agoOnly from my own apps. New android versions are always much more likely to install my apps than their actual percentage of devices out there.
- jekub 12y agoBut even if you don't install new apps, phones still call the play store regularly at least to ask for updates of the OS and the installed apps so they should be counted in the stats.
