According to the latest figures posted by Apple, more than half the iOS device (iPhone, iPad and iPod touch) users visiting the App Store have updated to iOS 8. The Cupertino-based company updated its App Store Distribution page to show the OS distribution data of App Store visitors on November 10, split between iOS 8, iOS 7 and earlier iOS versions.
According to the App Store Distribution page 56 percent or the majority devices were running iOS 8, followed by 40 percent running iOS 7, and 5 percent running earlier versions. This translates to 101 percent, so it's apparent Apple has rounded off figures incorrectly. The numbers reported by Apple definitely show a rise in iOS 8 adoption if compared to the numbers shared by Apple in September.
Earlier, 49 percent or the majority devices were running iOS 7, closely followed by iOS 8 (46 percent of the devices), and the rest on earlier versions (5 percent). In early October, according to some third-party tracking sites, iOS 7 had a better start than iOS 8. One firm reported that iOS 8 had hit an adoption rate of just 7.3 percent in 24 hours of its public release, compared to 18.2 percent for iOS 7, and 14.8 percent for iOS 6.
