Strategy Analytics released the latest numbers yesterday. Year-over-year, Android gained in global market share from 78.9% to 81.2%. iOS declined from 15.5% to 15.0%. 4Q numbers always look good for Apple because of their release cycle. Year over year is more helpful.

That said, leveling off is pretty much a given at 80%... hard to push above that in any technology product sector.

Maybe Pareto's Rule is coming into play in some way?
 
I’m allowed to express my opinion about iOS apps on an Apple site. And I hate the fact Google keeps trying to Android-ify iOS, and want to express myself. If you don’t like that, then just ignore it.
