Apple Execs on iMessage for Android (2013)

There's Line, Kakao Talk, Viber, WeChat, SnapChat... all very popular in different countries & with different demographics. WeChat is of course the most sophisticated in terms of ecosystem beyond just messaging.

None of these may have arisen or become so popular if Apple & Android had created interop.

I wonder how Telegram was not mentioned in the thread so far.

Telegram is orders of magnitude smaller than any of the those listed above, except maybe a Viber (I’m not sure; it seems to have some use in SEA countries).

Is Snapchat used like them among every generation?
