First of all, there are tons of android smartphone user. Some people even have bunch of android smartphone either for leisure or business. It is normal.

For developer, they need to know the popular platform to market their app, either by ads or by direct selling. New android version doesn’t always mean better. There are bunch of people that i know which is still using the 2.0 Android OS in 2016. Why? because it is much simpler. Maybe,  new Android Nougat that is going or is already released in some country won’t be the most popular OS.

Well, The Statistic of android user using OS is here :

Version Codename API Distribution
2.2 Froyo 8 0.1%
2.3.3 –
2.3.7
Gingerbread 10 1.7%
4.0.3 –
4.0.4
Ice Cream Sandwich 15 1.6%
4.1.x Jelly Bean 16 6.0%
4.2.x 17 8.3%
4.3 18 2.4%
4.4 KitKat 19 29.2%
5.0 Lollipop 21 14.1%
5.1 22 21.4%
6.0 Marshmallow 23 15.2%
As you can see, the most used Android OS is the KitKat 4.4. Some user might be convenient to use the kitkat version and is to much of a pain to get a new phone, some might prefer the kitkat version.
Either way, it is the Android Developer Job to make an app that is suit for bunch of android OS. Now here is to list of the top 5 Android OS :
  • Number 1 : Android KitKat 4.3 (29.2%)
  • Number 2 : Android Lolipop 5.1 (21.4%)
  • Number 3 : Android Marshmallow 6.0 (15.2%)
