Tech Planet April 24 news, according to Sina Digital, research company StockApps has been studying the popularity of android (Android) operating system and iOS. Their new data shows that Over the past five years, Android's market share has fallen by 8 percent, while iOS's share has grown by 6 percent.
According to their report, in 2018, Android's market share reached its highest level ever, accounting for 77.32% of the market share. But as of January 2022, that share has dropped to 69.74%.
"The loss of Android market share comes down to increased competition within the operating system space," said StockApps' Edith Reads. "Looking at the data, iOS grew by 6% between July 2018 and January 2022. From 19.4% at the time, it increased to 25.49%, and other operating systems accounted for the remaining 1.58%. ”
Although the two are mutually exclusive. But the state that Android has more phones (types) in the market hasn't changed. The percentage share of this data does not take into account whether the market as a whole has grown over the past five years. Therefore, in fact, the relative indignation and change of the two cannot be inferred that Apple has attracted more new users, or that mature markets have begun to favor iOS.
At present, the market state is still the state of the two camps of Android and iOS, and other small systems (such as KaiOS) occupy specific markets in Places such as India, but it seems that there are not many opportunities.
