00:00.620 --> 00:06.890
So now what I would like to do is show you how widely Android is used in the world.

00:07.800 --> 00:08.580
In figures.

00:10.130 --> 00:16.280
So the percentage of widespread use of Android will show us the number of users who should care about

00:16.280 --> 00:21.360
mobile security and the importance of ensuring Android security in particular.

00:22.100 --> 00:29.150
So an ecosystem in market terminology refers to the independence between demand and supply.

00:30.260 --> 00:32.270
So let's examine this on a chart.

00:33.610 --> 00:41.590
So this graph shows the mobile operating systems market share worldwide from January 2012 to July of

00:41.590 --> 00:42.490
2020.

00:43.310 --> 00:45.020
As you can see here in the graph.

00:46.020 --> 00:54.090
Check it out, Android is the leading mobile operating system worldwide in July of 2020, taking a seventy

00:54.090 --> 00:59.040
four point six percent share of the entire mobile operating system market.

01:00.000 --> 01:07.140
Android and Apple II was, of course, jointly possess almost 99 percent of the global market share.

01:08.120 --> 01:15.320
One point six billion of the three point five billion people using smartphones all over the world are

01:15.470 --> 01:24.270
Android users and the number of available apps and Google Play store is two point nine six million.

01:25.040 --> 01:26.100
These are huge numbers.

01:26.120 --> 01:26.770
Wouldn't you agree?

01:28.880 --> 01:33.470
So let's have a look at which versions of Android are used most widely.

01:34.580 --> 01:43.190
So this graph here shows the Android operating system share worldwide by OS version from 2013 to 2020.

01:45.800 --> 01:53.120
As you can see here, why nine zero is indeed the most popular version of Android operating system as

01:53.120 --> 01:58.240
of April 2020, the total market share of thirty one point three percent.

01:59.000 --> 01:59.900
But look at this.

02:00.650 --> 02:09.170
Despite being released in the fall of 2015, marshmallowy six point zero was still the second most widely

02:09.170 --> 02:13.150
used version of Android operating system on smartphone devices.

02:15.290 --> 02:23.540
Now, you may remember that developers at Google previously named Android versions after certain items

02:23.540 --> 02:32.030
of confectionary, but in a break from tradition, the latest release in September 2019 is simply called

02:32.030 --> 02:33.170
Android 10.

02:34.030 --> 02:39.280
Rich had a share of eight point three percent seven months after its first release.

02:41.050 --> 02:48.190
Now, the question may pop into your head here, why are older Android versions still being used?

02:48.830 --> 02:48.970
Hmm.

02:49.660 --> 02:54.550
Well, of course, it's considered good practice to install the latest version of the software onto

02:54.550 --> 02:58.300
your smartphone, especially for security reasons.

02:59.060 --> 03:05.050
But Android updates vary by device manufacturer and mobile carrier.

03:06.500 --> 03:12.860
Now, it's also true that older devices cannot always run newer Android versions, in fact, around

03:12.860 --> 03:19.100
60 percent of Android devices are running a mobile operating system that is over two years old.

03:19.730 --> 03:21.340
That's a fun fact for you, huh?

03:21.860 --> 03:26.060
Especially if you are in the digital security sector.

03:27.830 --> 03:36.530
In any event, since Android pay nine point zero because it's the most widely used, I'm going to be

03:36.530 --> 03:42.470
using PI nine here during the course, but you can also use Android eight and 10.

03:43.430 --> 03:46.280
And you'll see why shortly.
