Why is iPhone exclusivity still a Thing? With Android holding 70.4% of the current smartphone marketshare to iOS's 17.8%, it's ridiculous to launch a startup and ignore that large of a potential userbase.

Not only that, an app such as this is only going to truly be successful with the network effect. By shunning so many users you're basically guaranteeing that that will never happen.

You've got to start somewhere. And it seems like it makes sense to release the first one you finish so you can get some early feedback.

Trying to hold out releasing anything until you can do everything you want? Recipe for never releasing anything.
