Android 4.4 Kitkat is most demanded OS by every android user due to its low ram need. but even then it will take some time to cover all the devices due to some ART runtime compiler and its latest features.Although it covered 8.5% last month and till 4th June, it is 13.6 which is not bad but could be more than that. Hopefully we expect that it will cover the more devices soon! and from above graph we can see that Honeycomb is no more available, and jelly bean API 16 is dropped from 34% to 29% the reason could be the rise of API 17 from 18 to 19% and API 18 from 9 to 10.3%, but main reason will always be Kitkat.

Also other versions dropped from its previous values as stated Gingerbread from 17.8 to 14.9% and Ice cream sandwich from 14.3 to to 12.3% but Froyo is still there which was expected to be invisible in this month but it got slightly dropped from 1 to 0.8%.

We can expect more drop in older versions in july and rise in Kitkat. What do you think?
