What kind of phone do you use?

Question

I am considering writing a mobile app to help estimate rehab costs. As a very preliminary first step, I would like to gather some basic data about what platforms are most prevalent among RE investors. I would love to know what kind of phone you use. You can include the phone model and OS version if you like, but for the moment I'm looking for very basic data—iOS or Android?

Thanks!

I am in the software industry and somewhat of a snob in this area, so its Nexus 5 running Pure Android for me. I think you are wasting your time if you target any mobile O/S other than the top 2, per this article:

Yeah us windows phone users HATE being left out. Although since Windows only holds ~5% of the market share last I checked, we are used to it. That said, MS is doing a lot of good to pick things up and gain traction. I'm hoping more developers create apps for us since there is no way I'm going back to ios or android.

And there's the outlier I was waiting for. :)

Alexander Felice · Answer

I use strictly MS products. Windows 8.1 on all my devices.

Thanks for your replies everyone. As I suspected even though this is a very small sample size, it's a pretty even split between Android and iPhone. If I do decide to write the app, I will post about it in the marketplace when it's ready.

Basic dumb phone.  The money I save goes into my business and earns me money.  I'll buy your $600 phones for $10 in a few years!
