Apple's iOS 6.1 has lured in a hefty number of users, at least according to data out yesterday from Onswipe.
Released on Monday, Apple's latest OS update was downloaded by 21.8 percent of iOS users within just 36 hours. Among the iOS users tracked by Onswipe, 24 percent were iPhone owners and 21 percent iPad owners.
Further, Onswipe data sent to CNET showed that 11.3 percent of users had already upgraded to iOS 6.1 within the first 24 hours. Based on the stats, the latest iOS version hit a record for the quickest adoption rate.
Of course, the data doesn't include all iOS users, just those tracked by Onswipe. A developer of mobile Web sites, Onswipe tracks 13 million active iOS users, up from 10 million last month.
That's a small slice of the total number of iOS users, even those who've been running iOS 6. Unveiling iOS 6.1 on Monday, Apple marketing VP Phil Schiller said that iOS 6 reached almost 300 million iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch users in just five months.
