In any given geographic region, the concept of an operating system or a platform, in and of itself, is of little importance as a clear majority of the smartphone users are not computer- or tech-savvy. They wouldn't have the slightest idea what you're talking about. It doesn't have to ring a bell with them. As a lay passenger, I wouldn't want to or have to know what planes are made of or how a flight management system works. That's not my business. Think of it from a user's perspective.
