It's been a couple of months since Google last updated its Android platform distribution numbers, but the drought has finally come to an end today.

Google today shared its latest Android platform distribution stats, which measure the different versions of Android that were used to access the Play Store during the 7-day period ending April 16, 2018. Android Oreo (8.0 and 8.1) saw quite a growth in usage from the last time these numbers were updated back in early February, going from 1.1 percent to 4.6 percent.
