    Honestly using an iWatch on Android is the absolute least of my concerns, so I hope this argument is a piece of the overall “walled garden” and not a singular issue they are dedicating resources to solving.

    Oh that’s rich. So what they’re saying is somehow every other smartwatch company can engineer not only a way to solve the technical limitations, but a full smartwatch in under three years, while one of the most powerful tech companies somehow thought “naah, connecting to android is a lot more difficult than a self driving car or a VR headset with an integrated computer and video passthrough, we better shelve that idea”.

    Yeah ok Apple.

    Uh, is that the response to Google saying Apple is blocking their Google “AirTags” a few days ago?

      Oh I’m sure they “tried” in a very circuitous, unfavorable, nobody-would-ever-have-agreed-to-this way.

      Kind of like saying “can I download my indie game to your computer and also kick you in your genitals with a spiky boot?”

      Before anyone tries pointing out that’s not exactly how it would have happened, I suggest you look up “hyperbole”
