iOS 11 is Now Installed on 70% of devices

Apple doesn’t go out of its way to regularly update the adoption statistics of iOS, but it isn’t completely adverse to the idea.

Today, Apple has updated its official App Store support page, and indicates that iOS 11 has made a pretty big jump since early December of last year. Over a month ago iOS 11 adoption was at 59 percent, but now Apple says it has jumped up six percent in just a matter of weeks. That marks iOS 11 at 70% adoption as of right now.

Meanwhile, iOS 10 is still holding onto 28 percent of devices out there in the wild. And, as the pie chart indicates, older versions of iOS are now below 10 percent, sitting at 7%.

It is true that iOS 11 has seen slower adoption than the mobile operating system’s predecessors, but with the new numbers it’s still impressive considering iOS 11 launched in September of last year. And there are a lot of iOS devices out there that can support iOS 11, too.

Apple has released several updates for iOS 11 at this point, with the current version of the OS sitting at iOS 11.2.2. Apple is currently beta testing iOS 11.2.5, though, with the seventh developer and public betas being seeded out earlier today.

It is expected that Apple will release iOS 11.2.5 to the public early next week. When that does arrive, it will include a patch to the “chaiOS” iMessage bug, which can make an iPhone, iPad, or Mac freeze up with a specific link is sent to a contact through an iMessage.
