Microsoft maybe the leading platform in computer but when it comes to tablets and phones, Microsoft is really struggling
The question is what to do about it? here is what I think. I hope you guys would read it, comment on it and then share your own thoughts about ways in which Microsoft can rise again
Targeting the customers of developing world seems to be working but its not THAT effective. On the other hand getting people to switch from Apple and Android phones to windows seems more like a successful plan that will cause a significant rise. Now I know that Microsoft had their campaigns to help attract the android and apple phone users like #Switch and "don't get scroogled" but come on guys, the only way to force humans into something isn't by sweet talking them into it like what these campaigns do. One of the few ways to force our stubborn race , humans, into something is by limiting their options. You see Microsoft is a VERY friendly community. Microsoft team is nice, so nice that they provided apple and android with their native applications like OneDrive, Office, OneNote and even OUTLOOK . Seriously Microsoft -.- ?? you are going to provide your rivals with your OWN cloud storage ?? with your OFFICE apps that gets everyone to drool ?? your OUTLOOK ? All of these things are important ! Put yourself in the shoes of any android or Apple user, that's what you'll think " oh well well what have we here, oh onedrive, that's perfect now I can use my iPhone to upload everything and go back home use my windows desktop to continue working" and so is the case with every single other app I listed above.
I believe that Apple and Android phone users SHOULDNT be given to permission to use Microsoft apps on their phones or at all. because the more apps Microsoft make for Apple and Android, The more THEIR customers will be satisfied and comfier with their current OS on their phones.
now don't get me wrong you guys I know that Office for instance requires payment but what's better ? a profit from an app or a profit from a handset with thousands of paid apps ? you think on it
And FYI I don't hate Android and Apple. there is nothing in my heart but love and respect to these platforms. everyone of them is special and unique but im sorry guys these platforms don't give a sh*t about Microsoft (excuse my language). If it was a symbiotic relationship where "I give you apps you give me apps" I would be cool with that. but its not and it will never be Google in specific would never give off its native apps neither will apple. I don't see iCloud coming anytime soon on our windows phone store. YouTube ? on windows phone ?? don't think so either
Bottom line is "Microsoft should pull out all their apps from Play store and App store" this will get people flocking around Microsoft stores wanting more handsets after they realized how important it is for them to use such apps on daily basis
