Google’s Android Marshmallow update is now running on over 4.6 percent of devices worldwide, the company reports, up from the 2.3 percent point at which it sat during March. As those with a keen eye will already have noted, that means Android 6.0.x is now live on double the number of devices than last month.
Google’s statistics, which cover the seven-day rolling period ending April 4, have Marshmallow still a long, long way behind the most dominant Android release currently keeping devices ticking along. That badge of honor belongs to Android KitKat, which makes up a comparatively massive 33 percent of the Android installed base.
