Андроид статистика от 7 марта

Последняя статистика о версиях Андроида доступна на сайте developer.android.com как обычно. Мы можем видеть, как KitKat продолжает терять своих пользователей, и, с другой стороны, здесь уже заметен прогресс для Lollipop и Marshmallow. Это хорошая причина переключиться на minSdkVersion=19.

Я понял, что страница "Android Dashboards" нуждается в других типах данных в секции "Screen Sizes and Densities".

Android Dashboards - March 7th

Latest statistics about version of Android available on developer.android.com as usual. We can see KitKat keeps losing its users and from other side here is stable progress for Lollipop and Marshmallow. It's a very good reason to switch for minSdkVersion=19.

I've realized that page "Android Dashboards" needs another set of data in section "Screen Sizes and Densities".

Android Dashboards - February 1st

Do you still care how to choose min SDK version? Last two years Google guys spent lot of efforts in order to make Android more fluent for vendors. The most popular devices now regularly receive firmware updates automatically. From the developer's point of view it's a fantastic! We don't need to care about dino-phones anymore.

You can see it by yourself from latest statistics from Google. Devices with API 19 and higher now cover more than 70% of market! This means we can use lot of modern features of Android KitKat, Lollipop and Marshmallow without tons of libraries and crutches.
