It's likely the high-water mark for the current version of the software for iPhones and iPads as iOS 9 stands by for its first wave of downloads.
September 16, 2015 by Lance Whitney
A year removed from its bug-plagued launch, Apple's iOS 8 now is running nearly nine out of every 10 Apple mobile devices.
That's just in time for it to start giving way to the next version of the software that powers iPhones and iPads, iOS 9, which makes its debut Wednesday.
In what is likely its high-water mark, iOS 8 has scored an adoption rate of 87 percent, according to stats that Apple shared Tuesday via its App Store Distribution page. The 87 percent figure includes all the iPhones, iPads and iPod Touches that visited Apple's App Store on Monday, September 14. That's up from the 85 percent seen more than a month ago and the 81 percent reported in late April.
