It depends whether whatsapp or viber or messenger dominates, but not whether iMessage is widely used or not.

Yeah the only country where iMessage is slightly big is the UK and they obviously aren't part of the EU anymore

I'n Denmark almost 70% of the population uses iOS. So iMessage is definitely the dominating platform here.

I used to have an iPhone and never opened iMessage. I was thinking that it is different name for SMS. So 70% iOS penetration doesn't mean 70% iMessage use.

You are the exception in this case.

It's whatsapp or telegram, i've heard of viber.

Viber was pretty popular here (Spain) before WhatsApp supported voice calling. People used them side by side, Viber for voice, WhatsApp for text. Now WhatsApp dominates everything, with Telegram coming in a very distant second. Telegram seems popular for groups because I believe it doesn't show everyone your phone number. A lot of Teachers seem to setup Telegram groups for their students so their student's don't see their phone number.

Telegram also allows unlimited upload of files, so it's used a lot for sharing big files between groups.

That's very true and such a nice feature! I think the one time I ever used Telegram was to send my girlfriend a multi gigabyte video file, so she could forward it into her student's Telegram group from her phone.
