In February, we examined the Android v iOS battle of 2017.
Our latest data looks at Q1 2018. We see a slight loss for Android in Canada, reversing the 2017 trend. Android also lost out in Colombia, Ireland, Egypt, and most notably India, where KaiOS has made inroads into both Android and iOS due to a surge in popularity of feature phones.
iOS usage increased in Canada, Spain, South Africa and Nigeria. Only five countries included in our study - Australia, France, India, Malaysia, Poland - registered losses for the OS, suggesting Q1 was a decent quarter for Apple.
The following statistics are based on mobile web traffic over Q1 2018 to a global network of partner websites using the DeviceAtlas device detection platform.
