Meta-ish: to attain coverage from 95% of Android devices, you have to support 7.0 ("Nougat"), which dates back to August 2016 (~7 years ago):

To attain coverage of 95% of iOS devices, you have to support iOS 14 which dates back to September 2020 (~3 years ago):

Even for 'only' 90% coverage, it's 8.1 (2017) versus iOS 15 (2021).

Seems like Apple is doing a better job of convincing / allowing folks to move to a more recent version of their operating system.
