Q: synchronisation  of  apple and android

Hello Everone,

 

I just waned to know when, we will be able to synchronise and get smooth transition of document and call without going through lots of hoops to continues conversation with order carries.   I would love to be able to chart with family member with a different brand of phone. Apple should make at list the iMessage app available to orders for wilder market and profitability to all.

 

In my opinion,

OJ

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mavericks (10.9)

    How on Earth would we know?  We don't work for Apple and know nothing more than you and what Apple has publicly announced.


    As far as a "smooth transition of document", I really don't know what that means, but cloud based apps such as Dropbox and Google drive sync my stuff just fine.

    Then use Skype, WhatsApp, or simple text messaging.

    Then tell them, not us.  http://www.apple.com/feedback

    It doesn't seem likely that iMessage will ever be made available to other OS's…

    Steve Jobs said that FaceTime would be made an 'open standard' when he announced it in 2010 - that still hasn't happened (possibly because of patent issues).

    Apple doesn't care about other OS's, you can see it in their history - they only make apps for other OS's when they can use it to sell hardware (iTunes on Windows sells iPods & iOS devices). Apple never made any software for Linux or Android.

     

    If you really want solutions that work across other OS's don't use Apple software, find third party apps instead. What's app, Threema, Skype, Hangouts, Viber…

    Many apps know how you talk to other OS's. Apple users need to stick to their own echo chamber of other users.
