 I am questioning one thing.

How did Apple's iMessage get so many users?

 In what way? With existing iPhone users or with people getting their first phones and then becoming an I message user for life?

 Default messaging app, prompts you to sign up. Also on the iPhone you cannot change your SMS app, so people have to open iMessage.
