At least in the US it is very difficult to convince people to switch from text messaging to another service. The way iPhone does it by default with other iPhones is really the only way it happens for most users.
so its not encryption, but network effects that keep you from switching...
I use Android but I'm pointing out that encryption behind Apple is better than SMS.
sorry, I thought you were the previous comment, my bad. as for encryption: yes it is better, as SMS is not emcrypted at all...
No worries! I totally understand the confusion and I can often be difficult to interpret.
