Apple Says iOS 8 Adoption Jumped 4% Over The Holidays [Chart]

Posted January 6, 2015 at 10:04pm by
Just before the holidays, Apple noted iOS 8 adoption was at 64%; however, today the company announced iOS 8 adoption jumped 4% to 68%.

Apple reports the 68% figure based on App Store usage as of January 5, 2015.


Adoption of iOS 8 was initially slower than iOS 7; however, it has been increasing steadily. Holiday sales of the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus likely caused the slight increase in adoption of the new operating system.

It's not because someone upgraded.. If there were any iOS6 phones still for sale, I'd buy a load of 'em.. Forget iOS 7 and 8, seriously.
