It very much depends where you're looking (or more to the point, where you're looking to distribute). It obviously varies widely by region.

E.g. Worldwide, according to https://www.statista.com/statistics/271774/share-of-android-platforms-on-mobile-devices-with-android-os/ Android 4.4 is 6.9% (of all Android, not of all mobile), and earlier versions together add up to 3.8%. But US only (https://www.statista.com/statistics/865837/mobile-android-version-share-in-the-us/), 4.4 is just 0.68% of all Android.

E.g. using Device Atlas data from Q2 2019 https://deviceatlas.com/blog/mobile-os-versions-by-country gives Android 4.4 share (nothing below 4.4 is registered) as:
        Egypt           7.80%
        Indonesia       5.59%
        South Korea     4.32%
        Romania         4.04%
        Argentina       3.27%
        South Africa    2.47%
        Nigeria         2.42%
        India           1.53%

These numbers are percentage of all mobile (i.e. including iOS). These countries are the only ones for which Android 4 registers. For the UK, the oldest recorded version is Android 5.1 on 1.5%; for US it's Android 6 on 2.61%.

Ralph, can you give more information about that "5% of all active installs" figure?

TIA,

Ben
