Jelly Bean now on more than half of active Android devices


Android

Weve got a new version of Android now available and a new round of platform version numbers to go along with it. As youd expect, there are no Android 4.4 KitKat numbers for the week leading into Nov. 1 and remember that Android 4.4 being available as downloadable code is different than actually being on devices so well have to wait a little bit for it to show results.

But for now, Android 4.1-4.3 Jelly Bean is at 52.1 percent of all active devices. Thats up from 48.6 percent a month ago. Ice Cream Sandwich (Android 4.0.3-4.0.4) dropped a tad to 19.8 percent. The much-maligned Android 4.3 Honeycomb is at a mere 0.1 percent. Android 2.3.x Gingerbread is down slightly to 26.3 percent, and Android 2.2 Froyo is hanging on at 1.7 percent.

Those numbers are from devices that use the Google Play Store app, and so they dont include things like the Amazon Kindle, to say nothing of the multitudes of other devices that dont use Google services.

The big challenge will be to get those Gingerbread numbers lower. Eradication would be nice, but thats not overly realistic.
