Nobody knows or uses iMessage in Europe.
I’m sure most iPhone users know iMessage. They just don’t use it.
Similar to how most Russians know google but don’t use it. They use yandex. Or china with baidu
Apple should have created an iMessage app for all devices
No thanks.
iMessage only works between Apple devices and ultimately that is what will kill it.
15 or so years they seem to be doing just fine.
Idk why you guys think iMessage is some hot draw that makes us choose iPhones lol. If this was 2010 sure.
I do and happily so.
Most people I know would use Facebook Messenger before WhatsApp.
Me.
I have Facebook and Instagram. Thus by extension I have manager.
I have no reason to use WhatsApp.
the green bubble is taking over due to your stubbornness and pride.
No it’s not.
but will probably switch back to a fold soon.
Bless your heart.
The Usability of iMessage seems kind of off. Something is not that snappy and flows like in what's app. But anyway I like signal more and a lot of my buddies are using it now instead of the other messenger apps.
It’s pretty easy. Type contact name in or number. The text message and hit send.
It probably should concern him that WhatsApp is owned by Meta as much as it should concern you that iMessage is owned by Apple. As of July 2024, Facebook has 3.06 billion monthly active users. That's about double of Apple users of all kinds. It would appear people trust Meta more than they trust Apple.
Yeah that’s not at all a comparison that makes sense.
First of all, google and meta regularly switch places as the company that people trust the least. Apple is usually nowhere near then because wait for it. Consumers actually trust apple.
Apple has an insanely high brand loyalty compared to most companies. Day in and day out people are constantly trashing and even deleting their Facebook accounts.
So that is categorically false.
Second of all,
You’re comparing a social media platform to a tech platform for phones/media/tablers/computers.
They are not the same.
Yes meta has more users but that’s not because of trust.
people have Facebook and have had them for years. People have instagram.
There is no legit alternative for Facebook at this moment. Twitter is a mess. Reddit is not the same.
Instagram is the de facto picture sharing platform and it is only beaten by tik tok.
When you literally have no competition against you then of course you’re going to have a huge audience and market share.
Same with YouTube. I don’t use YouTube because I trust google.
In fact it’s quite the opposite. I’ve never trusted google.
I simply use YouTube because wait for it….its the only major video sharing platform
