It's mostly an issue that android users in the US don't use what's app

Facebook Messenger is more popular than WhatsApp here. So it's not like there aren't alternatives.

The point is that it's not really Android users' problem. There are options for iPhone users and, yes, if they really want to use the native iPhone messaging app they can complain to Tim Apple. Cc: @[email protected]

Yeah that's what I'm saying. Android users themselves don't care about modern messaging features. Some people do tho.

Are you implying that the RCS that comes with Google Messages is significantly less modern than whatever ships with iPhones?

Edit: Or, are you saying that most Android users wouldn't care if that was the case?
