Here is a comprehensive list of all of the Android statistics that you need to know.
Android is the world’s most popular mobile operating system and the mobile platform for the digital behemoth Google. Unlike Apple’s iOS, Android is not married to any one hardware manufacturer, making it easier for its market share to grow.
So how big has Android become? Here are all the Android statistics I was able to dig up in my digital travels. With so many Android versions available, a huge smartphone market share and 2 billion users, there is much to measure. As always, I will be constantly updating this post with new and updated stats, so be sure to check back often for new content.
This report contains all the Android & Google Play statistics I have been able to dig up over the years; 100+ of them including stats on:
- Users
- Apps
- Market Share
- Revenue
- Android Wear
- Google Play
- Etc.- all in one place
I try to go through each and every stat regularly and update as much as possible, but we all know that some stats are easier to track down than others. As always, every stat is linked to its original source and has the source date listed.

Bundle 2: Billion users club digital report bundle (Android, Facebook, Facebook Messenger, Google, Microsoft, Whatsapp, YouTube).
Bundle 3: Mobile report bundle (Android, iPhone/iPad, Verizon, Samsung, Xiaomi and Mobile Statistics Reports).
Please note that some of these numbers are easier to find than others. A few of these stats come from Google’s own reports, but some are based on news reports and not official company tallies. Basically, this is the best I can find and I don’t guarantee anything to be 100% accurate.
