‘iMessage plays a pivotal role in the success of the iPhone and contributes significantly to Apple's business is inaccurate.’
If you ask many iPhone users why they use an iPhone rather than an Android. They would tell you iMessage first.
Many iPhone users won’t even consider an Android, only because of iMessage and no other reason.

- wkat4242 3y agoNot in Europe. Almost nobody uses iMessage here. It's because the marketshare of Apple is much lower in most EU countries. I'm glad because I use android also.
