According to the model, features that cause an innovation and a technology adoption; are relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trial ability, and visibility of the discussed phenomena. For more acquaintance of different operation systems, the history of creation and development in this field has been explained. Base on data that covered 377 users of an interactive application, correlation has been found. By regression analysis, the effect and coefficient has been proved. Results show that smartphone operation systems development has a positive effect on application usage rate. As a result, acceptor increase and growth rate of actual application users by OS development are more likely predictable.
