iOS 9 now on 66% of all compatible devices
25% of Apple device owners are still using iOS 8, while another 9% are on earlier versions of iOS

MANILA, Philippines – Apple on Tuesday, November 3, showed that 66% of compatible devices that can run iOS 9 are actually doing so.

An Apple Insider report said that the increase in adoption appears to be caused by Apple’s latest update, which is iOS 9.1. Statistics gathered in early October put adoption at 57% previously.

The graph also showed that 25% of Apple device owners are still using iOS 8. Meanwhile, devices with iOS versions earlier than iOS 8 made up 9% of the pie. Apple gets the data it used for the chart by measuring visits to its app store.

Apple’s iOS 9.1 update includes a number of bug fixes, including resolutions to an issue that could cause incorrect unread mail counts for POP mail accounts, improvements to performance when in the multitasking UI, and the addition of more than 150 new emojis with additional Unicode support. – Rappler.com
