iOS 8 adoption rate inches up to 52 percent

From CNET: iOS 8 adoption continues to creep up, though it's not setting any speed records.

Updating the stats on its App Store Distribution page on Tuesday, Apple revealed that iOS 8 adoption is up to 52 percent, with iOS 7 at 42 percent and older versions collectively at 5 percent. The numbers show adoption rates as of Monday.

What kind of gains do the new figures reveal for Apple's latest mobile OS? On September 22, Apple showed iOS 8 with a 46 percent share, iOS 7 with 49 percent and older versions with 5 percent. So the growth in iOS 8 adoption continues but at a leisurely pace.

The percentages on the App Store Distribution page specifically reveal the number of devices that visit the App Store on a given date. So they don't provide a full picture of iOS 8 adoption but at least offer the measurement officially recorded by Apple.
