September 2017

Global Android version distribution since December 2009

Global Android version distribution as of August 2017. Android Marshmallow is the most widely used version of Android, running on 32.3% of all Android devices accessing Google Play, while Android Lollipop runs on 29.2% of devices (75% on it or newer).

The version history of the Android mobile operating system began with the public release of the Android beta in November 5, 2007. The first commercial version, Android 1.0, was released in September 2008. Android is continually developed by Google and the Open Handset Alliance, and it has seen a number of updates to its base operating system since the initial release.

Versions 1.0 and 1.1 were not released under specific code names. Android code names are confectionery-themed and have been in alphabetical order since 2009's Android 1.5 Cupcake, with the most recent major version being Android 8.0 Oreo, released in August 2017.

Oreo	8.0	August 21, 2017	26	Supported

Note: To clarify, support for e.g. Android 4.4.4 KitKat (Google's support cut-off), means at least security patches in 2014, 2016 and August 2017.^[15] The updates may or may not reach actual users' devices; that depends on vendors. Google (and others) may support their own users' devices with a major upgrade only, instead of a security update to those older versions, but it's possible to do.

A version of Android KitKat exclusive to Android Wear devices was released on June 25, 2014, with an API level of 20.

Pre-commercial release versionsEdit

The development of Android started in 2003 by Android, Inc., which was purchased by Google in 2005.^[16]

AlphaEdit

There were at least two internal releases of the software inside Google and the OHA before the beta version was released.^[17]^[18] The code names "Astro Boy" and "Bender" were used internally for some pre-1.0 milestones.^[2]

Dan Morrill created some of the first mascot logos, but the current Android logo was designed by Irina Blok.^[19] The project manager, Ryan Gibson, conceived the confectionery-themed naming scheme that has been used for the majority of the public releases, starting with Android 1.5 Cupcake.

BetaEdit

The beta was released on November 5, 2007,^[20]^[21] while the software development kit (SDK) was released on November 12, 2007.^[22] The November 5 date is popularly celebrated as Android's "birthday".^[23] Public beta versions of the SDK were released in the following order:^[24]

November 12, 2007: m3-rc20a (milestone 3, release code 20a)^[25]
