The apps that didn't work well were not due to lack of lock-in.
The apps didn't work well due to lack of maturity in the platform. This app is not failing because the OS is somehow '2013-like', it is failing because Android app developers are going all-in on lock-in.
In this case it doesn't seem to be related to lockin either.
