Saw a similar report that said iPhones had 20% of the market. So does that mean Android phones make up 78% of the market?

Approximately, yes. Figures vary based on how the data is taken, and vary over time. But I think that’s roughly correct.

Remember that “Android” is an OS, just as iOS is an OS. There are dozens, if not scores, of manufacturers who put Android in their phones. Only one company, Apple, uses iOS. But that means the 78% is comprised of many different companies. Not all “Android” is the same. It’s a highly varied offering, depending on manufacturer.
