If all your friends have an apple phone it's easy to buy one too. They have some features that makes having an android in an apple friend group quite anoying. For example the classic: "I'm going to air drop you the picture." And then only after every apple user in the room has got the picture they think about sending it the classic way to the outsider. It doesn't sound like much, but it doesn't just happen with air drop, but with a lot of those features. Source: I'm the android guy in an apple friend group.
They all are far from techy.. I think it's wrong to generalize, but I think if you don't know shit it's easier to go with apple. Android usualy is far more customizable, but some people just don't care and want a phone that just works. And for those apple can be the right option, because in general it's easier to understand at a first glance.
You should try LocalSend as an alternative to Airdrop with your Iphone friends!
Doesn’t that only work if everyone is connected to the same WiFi?
