iPhone OS current usage statistics (esp. 2.x vs 3.x)

I am trying to find out how many of the active iPhone and iPod touch users have at least 3.0 OS installed.

I need to know if the percentage running 2.x is still considerable or not really.

I tri开发者_C百科ed looking into AdMob stats, and other OS usage stats sites, but I can't get to see iPhone 2.x vs iPhone 3.x

As of January 2010, shortly before the release of 3.1.3:

At around 30,000 downloads (mostly in Austria, some in Germany) for one of our free apps, there are fewer than 5% of devices still on 2.2.1 or older (as reported by UIDevice).

Less than a quarter was not on the latest OS Release (3.1.2 at the time).

It's good to know the ratio 2.x VS 3.x but you may also ask yourself "Let's consider someone who is still using 2.x : is this person really a potential user of your app or an appstore user ?" . In my opinion : no.

So targeting below 3.0 does not make any sense IMHO.

Quick note, referring to iPhone OS 2.1.1 in user agent is used by most bots which claim to be iPhone.

After a look around, I have found this (which hopefully, will be of some use to you): http://tapbots.com/blog/news/iphone-os-30-adoption-rate

Hope this helps!

Check out flurry.com. They have a free SDK that take about two lines of code to start tracking all kinds of cool details like OS version, type of device, device version, location, what wireless carrier was used, WI-FI use, etc.

More recent data. (Bottom line: 4.0+ is effectively ubiquitous on iPhones--91% adoption.)
