I have lived in Germany and The Netherlands. Not having iMessage would be a mild inconvenience. Not having WhatsApp would be social suicide. Everything, from sports to kids school stuff is arranged through WhatsApp.

I know many iPhone users here who don’t even use iMessage. It’s activated, so it would show in the stats, but they’ll message everyone through WhatsApp.
