[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I hate apple products. I hate that they lock you in, and it doesn't play nice with other devices.

We got our kids android phones when they were in MS.  I think it was an older samsung.

When older DC hit HS, [b]they were being left out of group chats with friends who had iphones so they were missing the jokes and the last minute get togethers[/b]. I asked DC why they couldn't text them separately for outings, but they said that's now how it works with teens now.  I resisted getting them an iphone.  DC was always a bit of a nerd and socially immature, so being left out of these chats was making their social life worse.

So, we relented and got them an iphone, though they did save money and pay for some of it.  They started to get included in the chat groups, and along with other factors, they started to hang out more with the big friend group.

Get them the iphone for their social life.  And I am not one to buy the latest and greatest, keep up with the Joneses type.

I have an iPhone and I hear people say this all the time. I’m also on multiple group chats with a combo of iPhone/android users. I guess “liking” a text isn’t the same. But otherwise, I really don’t get what it is that makes it awful to text android users. You’re not the only one to say this so just trying to understand. Maybe I’m too basic of a texter. [/quote]
