According to Google's published monthly statistics, it has now been announced that Android Marshmallow is the 10th generation Procent mark has finally been cracked. It reaches about every tenth smartphone on the market.
Like every month, Google recently published the statistics for the Android version distribution. The statistics show how many Procent of smartphones currently running Android Marshmallow (version 6.0). Of course you can too ProRead out cent values for other versions. It has been running on 6.0 since the release of Android 30 on October 2015, 10,1 Procenter of smartphones.
That's about every tenth smartphone - in contrast to the previous month of May, Android M achieved an increase from 7,5 to 10,1 Procent. Of course, Android 7 already runs on the new smartphones, such as the Galaxy S6 or S6.0. The Galaxy S5 should now also receive an update to Android 6.0.1. But Android Marshmallow is far from leading.
Android Lollipop still mostly installed
Android 5.1 Lollipop continues to lead. Here also in comparison to the previous month, the mobile operating system received a growth of 0,6% and is now running on 20 Procenter of the devices. In contrast, the slightly older version 5.0 runs on 15,4% of all smartphones. Added together, this is 35,4% Procenter and is therefore currently the most installed Android.

In third place is Android KitKat with 31,6 Procent again. As a result, older versions are still installed on many devices. Somehow the software updates for the smartphones still don't really work. One of the first Android versions called Froyo (Frozen Yoghurt) with version 2.2 is still using 0,1 Procent of the user - madness. It is important to remember that this version was released on May 20th, 2010.
A small note by the way: a successor to Android Marshmallow is due to appear in autumn 2016 - Android 7.0, currently known under the code name Android N. Maybe Android M will crack the 20% mark by then. What do you say? Let us know via a comment below this post!
