Apple iOS has about 12% of the phone/Tablet market. So 10% would be good seeing as there is the Kindle iOS app.
Actual Windows tablets is a small %. Much less than iPads. They spent maybe $12 Billion and damaged the desktop experience trying to push Windows Phone (they once had near 30% in North America before iPhone when Nokia led), it's less than 1% now and officially EOL! Not many people read novels on laptops. I tried years ago. Instead I converted the mobi to a web document with navigation and put it on a media player with an 800 x 480 screen. Read one ebook that way.
So the number of Win10 in use isn't relevant to reading novels, even when Edge had epubs. Part of the reason it hasn't is that they entirely scrapped Edge. It's now based on Chromium, like Google's Chrome.
