This chart shows the top minor versions of the iOS operating system for each week in the last year. Values are percentages.
For the purposes of this survey, iOS also includes iPadOS, so this data is from iPads as well as iPhones. However, other spin-offs of iOS such as tvOS or watchOS are not included in this chart.

Some interesting observations are:
- As of end of January 2025 the share of iOS 18.3 was becoming relevant at over 5%. At the end of February it was clearly the version with the highest share at 57.72%.
- iOS 18.1, which is already featuring Apple Intelligence, was the most used version with over 50% as of end of January. It has dropped to 19.52% at the end of February.
- The share of the version in between, iOS 18.2, was increasing to around 25 % in January and then started decreasing to only 7.14% at the end of February – meaning it never went as high as iOS 18.1 and iOS 18.3 and was even considerably lower than the previous version iOS 18.1 at the end of February.
