Facetime already has a lot of limitations . While I do love it, it's very data heavy - have you ever looked at how much data it consumes? Also, it's a fn batteryand heat hog. It freaking makes all my phones hot and uses tons of power.

You can't easily record a call (unless I am unaware) it's hard to take screenshots, and you can't take a shot of just the other party, it always will have your personal view in a corner.

The call logs suck.

And obviously the walked garden.

I'm typing this on android, but I also have an iPhone on me that's wifi only such that I can facetime and imessages.

However imessage is broken as well: I can text people but some people can't text me back.

I also have a google voice account and somehow these three platforms have confused the system, as messages constantly get lost ,,,
