Android Oreo Distribution Reaches 4.6 Percent in April, Nougat Still

After a marginal distribution of a little over one percent in February, Android Oreo is now on 4.6 percent of Android devices, the highest ever for the current build. This includes the growth of Android 8.0 as well as Android 8.1. Unsurprisingly, the latest Android version isn't yet dominating the entire Android family. According to the Android distribution chat for the month of April 2018, it is still Android Nougat - comprising Android 7.0 and Android 7.1 - that is leading the entire family with an overall share of 30.8 percent. The distribution chart shows that Android Oreo's share has increased from 1.1 percent in February to 4.6 percent in April. Android 8.0 has reached the adoption rate of 4.1 percent (up from 0.8 percent in February), while Android 8.1 has grown marginally to 0.5 percent (up from 0.3 percent in February). On the part of Android Nougat, Android 7.0 has 23 percent share (up from 22.3 percent in February), whereas Android 7.1 has 7.8 percent share (up from 6.2 percent in February).
