The trouble with Apple's mobile devices is almost the opposite to Android ones: your data is heavily restricted to the Apple ecosystem (unless you're willing to give up a lot of that privacy) so even you may have difficulty transferring it to other equipment or services you choose to use. The trend may be further in that direction, too, if reports of future portless devices that can only communicate wirelessly turn out to be accurate.
