iPhone users stop upgrading to Apple's iOS 8 after...

Apple released statistics for the adoption of the new mobile platform as of October 5 and the results show that Apple users stopped upgrading their phones.From September 21, four days after iOS 8 dropped, the percentage of users accessing the App Store on iOS 8 has increased only 1 percent to 47 percent of users. This means that a majority of app downloaders haven't had the temptation to upgrade to the newest operating system yet.Reporting on the numbers Huffington Post says that the method the company uses of only measuring users visiting the App Store is 'very unscientific.' While it's uncertain to know which way the trend goes, the numbers are likely hiding more users who have no upgraded and do not visit the app store monthly.Business Insider reports that 65.5 percent of smartphone users download apps less frequently than once a month, according to a 2013 survey.Apple for its part dropped the ball on the release of the new iOS amid a host of other complaints of the iPhone 6.Users complained of a glitch in the updated Messages app that sent accidental selfies to contacts and the Health app had a bug that forced Apple to pull other third-party apps.The first update to iOS 8 was worse, with software that stopped the fingerprint sensor from working and prevented users from making calls, something smartphone users still apparently do.Apple was forced to kill that update in the first few hours and walk the update back.MacRumors reports that the iOS 7 adoption rate was 69.7 percent 20 days after the update was launched back in 2013.(dailymail.co.uk)Bakudaily.Az
