Each item will resolve soon after someone posts evidence on what sort of phone they use
Results and their value
iPhone= 0%
No phone = 50%
Both = 50%
Other OS = 60%
Android = 100%
iPhone can expand to cover all future Apple products. If the evidence is them saying they have tried both but mainly use one, that would not be a mixed resolution. Mixed (non 0/100) only happens when either we see them actually using both, personally, or they say they use both, or simultaneously evidence comes out that after today they have at least for some time, genuinely used both.
Valid evidence
Tweets, photos, videos, etc. It must be about the person's state as of today, February 27, 2024, onwards. It has to be publicly visible. If no evidence comes out, the entry will stay open. If the person passes away, if nothing new comes out I'll NA.
Judging
If someone stays on the list for say ten years, we will follow the normal procedure, even though they may have changed brands somewhere in there. We have to get the money out so whichever side finds evidence first would win. There is no end date and I expect the name list will be rolling.
I'll resolve each entry approx 24 hours after submission or slightly later to give the other side the chance to respond.
If you have a serious question about unclarity, I will adjust the description to meet my intentions which are to make something interesting. So please don't bet a ton if you see obvious unclear corner cases. First get clarity then go!
Adding entries:
Please add famous people!
Let the battle begin!

Edit: There's also various quotes from 2023 of him talking about having an iPhone.
@Pazzaz good find, but to be clear:

I have an email from him from February 26! which I understand is a day too early, I'd post it if that's considered evidence (and if given permission)
I have this screenshot from a private conversation with @Ernie that he is an android user.
(he gave me permission to post this)
Trump has an Android device. https://www.droid-life.com/2017/01/25/president-donald-trump-android-phone-investigation-benghazi-emails/
Very old article about this shows that requirement here: https://arc.net/l/quote/ialvlkcq
any reason Chris recently resolved yes and Joshua has been pending for a few months now?
Routinely wears a Pixel Watch, which only works with Android devices. @Ernie would that count, a photo of him wearing a pixel watch (if taken tomorrow)?
