I use Android.

I used to use Android and thumbed my nose at iPhones. Then the company decided to focus more on iPhones for Company apps and since it seemed to be more popular even with automotive and bike makers, i decided to switch when it became time to upgrade. In retrospect that was a dumb move, especially since the cameras are so delicate. Now that I also have an Apple Watch (which i do like) seems that I may be stuck with the iPhone, but I am an Android man. Dodgy

I didn't think so but I wanted to mention that use case in case it was the case. Put it this way, if it doesn't work with everything on and connected (best case scenario) then it is a non-starter.

That is cool.
