[android-developers] android statistics (android versions and their market share)

2011-11-08 Thread John Goche
Hello,

I wonder if anyone could tell me how long the latest version
of android (2.3.3) has been out. Where can I find a web page
with a pie chart of the relative number of phones which have
been produced for each android version?

Thanks a lot,

Many thanks,

John Goche

P.S. I am considering making my app available on lower
versions so as to increase sales but as of now I am unsure
about how much benefit I could reap from such an increase
in number of supported phones as I don't have the figures of
what's out there.

You might want to study platform highlights by version, as well:

http://developer.android.com/sdk/android-2.3.3.html

... the links for other versions are on the left.

Unless you need specific features that were introduced relatively 
recently, like NFC or VoIP, I'd go with 2.0 or aybe 2.2 as the 
minimum requirement.


( A side note on that version stats page posted by Chris: there are 
fewer devices running 3.* than 1.5+1.6 )
