New figures suggest that iPhone owner are altogether less impressed by the newiOS 15software update than they were byiOS 14last twelvemonth – or rather , that fewer iPhone owners are sufficiently impressed toinstall it .
When the net public version of iOS 14.0 had been available for 48 hours , 14.7 % of iPhone users had put in it , according to statistics from the analyst firmMixpanel .
The same figure this year , 48 hr after iOS 15 was release , was importantly lower : just 8.6 % of gadget appraise by Mixpanel were running iOS 15 after two days .
After three twenty-four hour period of availability , iOS 15 ’s install percentage had rise to 11.6 % , which is even further behind the tantamount figure ( 20.2 % ) for iOS 14 .
Here ’s a chart showing iOS 14 acceptation across the first five days of availability , establish onMixpanel ’s figures :
And here ’s the equivalent chartfor iOS 15 , showing a noticeably slow rise :
One cause for the slower borrowing may be the absence of sensational new features in iOS 15 . iOS 14 added the ability to remove apps from the abode screen but keep them in the newApp Library , for lesson , and made waves with the newHome screen widgetfeature .
MacRumorsalso suppose that a recent Apple announcement – that iPhone proprietor can persist on iOS 14 and go on to receive important security update – will also have been a element , although we have our doubts about the number of user who will be aware of this alteration .
There have been some well publicisedbugs in iOS 15 , which may have put off some potential upgraders . Perhaps our advicenot to update just yetinfluenced a couple of people , too .
Mixpanel ’s identification number , surprisingly , tend to be high-pitched than the prescribed ones now and again reported by Apple . In June , for example , Apple denote that 85 % of all iPhone user were run iOS 14 , yet Mixpanel had been reporting a figure of 90.5 % as betimes as April .
This may be because Mixpanel does not have approach to datum from all iPhone users , but is dependent on the subset of websites and apps that utilize its chopine .
