I see that you're taking this as an Android vs. iOS conversation and not a "how to effectively market to different audiences" conversation. I'll step out.

I contend it is either A> Not a new feature or B> Not well distributed.

Show me a publication date of the feature and installed base and we'll talk.

It's either not new (which would make it a valid strategy item) or it's not widely available/adopted (which makes it useless). This isn't a niggling unimportant point. iOS had the same issue when they basically left 3G and older phones behind as android does with certain features.
