Google did not mention the adoption of Android Pie as part of the distribution of data from October 2018 between different versions of the Android operating system.
The latest Google Pie Android operating system is not part of the October 2018 distribution data of different versions of Android. According to the latest figures, most device owners still use both variants of Android Nougat. Last year, Android Oreo, which included both versions 8.0 and 8.1, experienced significant growth in October 2018.
The problem of fragmentation of Google and Android will continue until the end of 2018, despite attempts like Project Treble to make more devices compatible with newer versions of the operating system. The latest version of Android 9.0 Pie is not even on the list, two months after its official launch in August.
The latest version of Android 9.0 Pie does not even appear in the charts, two months after its official launch in August.
One of the problems is that, for now, Android Pie remained limited to flagship smartphones such as the Pixel series and to other devices such as OnePlus 6, Huawei Mate 20 / Mate 20 Pro and Nokia 7 Plus. With OEMs in the budget category, Android updates continue to be a problem. Even the biggest players like Samsung have not been very quick to release updates.
In Android Nougat, the 7.0 and 7.1 versions combined mean that the two-year-old Google's operating system is 28.2 percentage points. Android Marshmallow, almost three years old, is present on 21.3% of these devices. In terms of percentage, version 6.0 is the only one to exceed the bar of 20%. In the case of Oréo and Nougat, one of the two versions is combined so that they exceed 20%.
In the case of Nougat, versions 7.0 and 7.1, the overall percentages are higher than those of Oreo users, which simply shows that many Android devices have not even received the update from last year. The 8.0 version of Android Oreo occupies 14.0% of the market, while the 8.1 version holds 7.5%, bringing the total to 21.5 percentage points.

While Android Nougat and Oreo show some growth, older Android versions also remain in use. Android Lollipop 5.1 is still installed on 14.4% of devices and the old Lollipop 5.0 on 3.5%. This represents a share of almost 17.9 percentage points for the four-year version of Android.
About 7.6% of devices are on Android Kitkat. Android Jellybean, which includes versions 4.1 and 4.2x, is respectively 1.1% and 1.5% of devices, which is down. Older operating systems, such as Ice Cream Sandwich and Gingerbread, use less than 1% of Android devices.
