With nearly 9 in 10 teenagers now using an iPhone, what does the future for Android in the US look like? At the moment, not great

Looking at the world I see 69% to 29% share in favour to android. There is no problem for android at all.
I feel like the headline is incomplete, should probably add in America
The subheading does specify that is in the US. And in the main text of the article, the very first line in fact, it mentions that Android has the largest market share worldwide.
Makes sense to include mentions that this is about the US in the Lemmy post. US is not the default
How much of that split is among the 3rd world and over 25s? Demographics matter, and paint a very different picture.
I don't know a single person of any age that uses an iPhone. I live in a medium-to-high income country.
A news program yesterday used a QR code to provide a link to a political document that is newsworthy. The anchor instructed people to "point your Android at the screen" to download the document.
Americans are vast outliers in this.
As an American, it seems we will go all in on the most expensive and most milquetoastly adequate option every time.
Hey, you taught me a new word. Milquetoast. Thanks!
In the Army we had a saying, America does not solve its problems - it overwhelms then.
Do you mind sharing where you live? I'm interested in what traits the countries that skew one way or another may have. It's worth noting that Japan is another outlier in this regard. They are something like 60-70% iOS over there.
And the UK is pretty evenly split, is my understanding. I have no idea how the demographic breakdown of the stats in the article compare in those territories, though.
I don't broadcast where I am or other personal info on social media. You can probably reverse engineer it from context cues if you try, it's not like I go to huge lengths to obscure it... but maybe please don't? It'd feel weird and stalkerish.
That's their point though
