The latest OS, iOS 18, has matched its predecessor in overall adoption, with 76% of iPhones from the past four years and 68% of all iPhones now running the software. In comparison, iOS 17 reached the same 76% adoption rate for newer devices in February 2024 but fell short of iOS 16’s performance during a reflect a solid uptake, iOS 17 achieved higher adoption in the similar timeframe.
Meanwhile, over half of all iPads — 53% — are now on iPadOS 18, while 63% of newer iPads have upgraded. Despite these milestones, around 27% of iPads remain on iPadOS 17, and 10% continue to use older software.

MacDailyNews Take: Even with Apple Intelligence features dribbling out slowly, there’s a big jump up from iOs 17 to 18, so the strong adoption rate isn’t a surprise!
