yes Apple people only use one type of messaging because iMessage is automatic when you text a cell phone number tied to an iPhone.


I think what he means is using another app for messaging. i get the feeling only in the US is using the native text messaging app a person's first reach for messaging someone. Seems like when I travel everyone is using Whatsapp or other messaging/DMs through various socials. they dont use the phone's native texting app or other sms/mms app. using a native app could also just be an older person thing since thats what we grew up on.

I could be wrong, but I believe this is at least partially because MMS/SMS fees are much more common in other parts of the world, combined with the fact that Android has a much larger market share internationally than in the US.
