KaiOS is a mobile operating system based on Linux, owned by KaiOS Technologies, a US-based company.[2] It is forked from B2G (Boot to Gecko), an open source community-driven successor of Firefox OS which was discontinued by Mozilla in 2016.[3][4][5]
The primary features of KaiOS bring support for 4G LTE E, VoLTE, GPS and Wi-Fi with HTML5-based apps and longer battery life to non-touch devices with optimized user interface, less memory and energy consumption.[6][7] It also features over-the-air updates.[citation needed] A dedicated app marketplace called KaiStore enables users to download applications.[8] Some services are preloaded as HTML5 applications, including Twitter, Facebook and YouTube.[9] The operating system is comparatively lightweight on hardware resource usage, and is able to run on devices with just 256 MB of memory.[10]
The operating system first appeared in 2017 and is developed by KaiOS Technologies Inc., a San Diego, California-based company headed by CEO Sebastien Codeville with offices in other countries.[11][12] In June 2018, Google invested US$22 million in the operating system.[13] India-based telecom operator Reliance Jio also invested $7 million in cash to pick up a 16% take in the company.[14]
In market share study results announced in May 2018, KaiOS beat Apple's iOS for second place in India, while Android dominates with 71%, albeit down by 9%. KaiOS growth is being largely attributed to popularity of the competitively-priced JioPhone.
In Q1 2018, 23 million KaiOS devices were shipped.
