     41 understand the landscape of device distribution and decide how to prioritize
     42 the development of your application features for the devices currently in
     43 the hands of users. For information about how to target your application to devices based on
     44 platform version, see <a href="{@docRoot}guide/appendix/api-levels.html">API Levels</a>.</p>

     87 <p>The following stacked line graph provides a history of the relative number of
     88 active Android devices running different versions of the Android platform. It also provides a
     89 valuable perspective of how many devices your application is compatible with, based on the
     90 platform version.</p>
     91 
     92 <p>Notice that the platform versions are stacked on top of each other with the oldest active
     93 version at the top. This format indicates the total percent of active devices that are compatible
     94 with a given version of Android. For example, if you develop your application for
     95 the version that is at the very top of the chart, then your application is
     96 compatible with 100% of active devices (and all future versions), because all Android APIs are
     97 forward compatible. Or, if you develop your application for a version lower on the chart,
     98 then it is currently compatible with the percentage of devices indicated on the y-axis, where the
     99 line for that version meets the y-axis on the right.</p>
    100 
    101 <p>Each dataset in the timeline is based on the number of Android devices that accessed
    102 Android Market within a 14-day period ending on the date indicated on the x-axis.</p>
