      Apple would get so much more money out of me charging $20 a month to use imessage on windows/android vs waiting for me to replace my iphone. I get I am the rare user but by golly I wish they would go multi platform.

          I’ve heard of it but didn’t want to buy a Mac or trust a third party with my messages.
