Google held a big presentation of the new Android 12 operating system today at the Google I / O conference, but also shared an important achievement of all versions of this OS.
Sameer Samat, VP of Product Management at Google, announced that there are over 3 billion active Android devices in the world today.
The last time Google made such announcements was two years ago, at a similar conference in 2019, when it reached the 2.5 billion active device milestone. And in May 2017, the $ 2 billion milestone was announced.

Statistics are taken from the Google Play store, i.e. smartphones and other Android devices with alternative app stores are not counted. Thus, the statistics did not include, for example, the Amazon Fire and many Chinese Android devices, which rarely use Google applications and services at all.
It should be remembered that at the beginning Apple boasted of overcoming the milestone of 1 billion active iPhones.
