iPhone Ownership Among Teens Hits 87%, More Than Double Since 2012

Of that list, I would be considered a 'monthly active user' of all but two.
That said, 99.9%(not sure how many 9's) of my messaging is done through Messages on my iPhone.

This list also makes my point. Who wants to keep track of which friends/family/colleagues/coworkers/contractors/service providers/etc use which messaging service? "Need to message Alice, uh, she's on Telegram ... now I need to message Bob, hmm, that's right, he's on WhatsApp".

Yes, those apps have huge subscriber counts. While I haven't done the research, I would hazard a guess that a very large percentage of actual regular users (ie. ones that use those third party apps every hour of every day) are Android users because SMS is insecure and limited in functionality.

Also, isn't a monthly active user of Facebook Messenger anyone who logs into Facebook?

That would make me a monthly active user of LinkedIn Messenger because I login to LinkedIn once a month or so and Messenger is always open down there.

He is long dead. We don't know what he would or wouldn't do. Between then and now, he could have and probably would have morphed in the way he thought about many things. He wasn't perfect as much as so many would like to believe. So there is really very little basis to speculate and what he would or wouldn't have done. If you want to say this and make it sound like something other than blathering babble, provide something in his past statements or actions that would back up this conjecture. Thanks so much.

LOL I guess I should have used the /s tag! Sorry I thought the idea that "Steve would never" allow iphones to dominate the market would be obvious enough.
