I love my iPhone and, for convenience sakes, DH has an iPhone too. BUT, if we don't have an Apple product, what do we have? FYI, I am still very engaged digitally with my volunteer commitments. How hard is it to communicate across platforms? And DH won't give up his iPhone. Thoughts

I'm not 100% sure what you're asking, but...I have the Samsung Galaxy. Instead of using messaging, you would just text. And if you currently use Facetime, instead you would both download the app Duo, which works the same. Is that what you were referring to?

My wife has a Samsung and I have an I-phone, we don’t have any problems communicating across platforms, they’re all interchangeable.

Texting should work fine. What about facebook messenger? Or something like WhatsApp?

The 'opposite' of Apple is an android which is what the samsungs are. Because neither has a clear majority market share, most things are able to be accomplished across platforms. Apple does some things better; android does others.

It has been my observation that for some people (not saying this is the case with your DH, of course) the smartphone fills the role previously occupied by a red Corvette.
