Google just updated the distribution figures for individual Android versions shared in Android Studio. This latest data also shows which version of Android is currently most widely used. 

According to the Gizchina report, this Android distribution data was just updated on October 1, 2023, just a few days before Android 14 was officially released. This data shows that Android 13 is the most popular version with an installation rate of 22.4% on all Android devices worldwide. 

This figure shows a quite significant spike for Android 13, which has been circulating for more than a year. The reason is that last May, the Android 13 installation rate was 15%, an increase of 7.4% in four months.

The high adoption rate for Android 13 is likely influenced by the increasing number of devices that are immediately available running Android 13, and many cheap Android cellphones that have been upgraded to the operating system. 

Below Android 13, there is Android 11 which is the second most popular version. Even though it is three years old, Android 11 is still used on 21.6% of Android devices. 

The popularity of Android 11 is likely due to the large number of users who have not updated the operating system on their cellphones to Android 12, or perhaps have not upgraded to a newer cellphone. 

In third position is Android 10 which has a market share of 16.1%, followed by Android 12 in fourth position with a market share of 15.8%, as quoted from Android Authority, Wednesday (1/11/2023). 

Android 9, which is five years old, still remains in fifth position with an installation rate of 10.5%. Next there is Android 8.1 which has a market share of 5.4%. 

Distribution rates of other legacy versions of Android are in the range of 1%. Because this old operating system no longer has support from Google, the numbers will likely continue to fall as users choose to upgrade to newer phones.

Google baru saja memperbarui angka distribusi masing-masing versi Android yang dibagikan di Android Studio. Data terbaru ini juga menunjukkan versi Android yang paling banyak digunakan saat ini.

Menurut laporan Gizchina, data distribusi Android ini baru saja diperbarui pada 1 Oktober 2023, hanya beberapa hari sebelum Android 14 dirilis secara resmi. Data tersebut menunjukkan Android 13 merupakan versi paling populer dengan angka instalasi 22,4% di semua perangkat Android di seluruh dunia.

Angka ini menunjukkan lonjakan yang cukup signifikan bagi Android 13 yang sudah beredar selama satu tahun lebih. Pasalnya pada bulan Mei lalu, angka instalasi Android 13 sebesar 15%, alias naik 7,4% dalam empat bulan.

Tingginya angka adopsi Android 13 kemungkinan dipengaruhi oleh semakin banyaknya perangkat yang lansgung hadir menjalankan Android 13, dan banyak HP murah Android yang mendapatkan upgrade ke sistem operasi tersebut.

Di bawah Android 13, ada Android 11 yang menjadi versi paling populer nomor dua. Meski usianya sudah tiga tahun, Android 11 masih digunakan di 21,6% perangkat Android.

Popularitas Android 11 kemungkinan disebabkan oleh banyaknya pengguna yang belum memperbarui sistem operasi di ponselnya ke Android 12, atau mungkin belum upgrade ke ponsel yang lebih baru.

Di posisi tiga ada Android 10 yang memilki pangsa pasar 16,1%, diikuti dengan Android 12 di posisi keempat dengan pangsa pasar 15,8%, seperti dikutip dari Android Authority, Rabu (1/11/2023).

Android 9 yang sudah berusia lima tahun masih bertahan di posisi kelima dengan angka instalasi 10,5%. Selanjutnya ada Android 8.1 yang memiliki pangsa pasar 5,4%.

Tingkat distribusi Android versi lawas lainnya berada di kisaran 1%. Karena sistem operasi lawas ini sudah tidak mendapat dukungan lagi dari Google, angkanya kemungkinan akan terus turun karena pengguna memilih upgrade ke ponsel yang lebih baru.
