    Until cross platform messaging is a good as iMessage and FaceTime from an iPhones user’s perspective it’s going to be bad.

    I have only ever used an iPhone (ignore non-smart phones) and have been weaned entirely on Apples stock apps. Conversely almost everyone I communicate regularly with is also an iPhone users. I do use other platform for communicating with non-apple friends but the experience is significantly poorer.

    I couldn’t say how many people existed within this almost exclusively Apple ecosystem but I would hazard a guess that there are a few.

      Apple uses iMessage as a moat against people switching to Android. They intentionally degrade your experience for their benefit.
