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.

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.
Ngl I don’t think I’ve ever used airdrop in the last 5 years other than trying to use it once or twice during covid, people weren’t showing up though no matter what my settings were so idk what happened.

Yeah I’ve seen family and friends struggle with airdrop, there are always 1 or 2 it doesn’t work for so they might as well be Android.
