Apple keeps the encryption keys and they can access all of your messages, if they feel like it. signal is encrypted by default and just saves when you created and when you last logged in to your account.
At least in the US it is very difficult to convince people to switch from text messaging to another service. The way iPhone does it by default with other iPhones is really the only way it happens for most users.

so its not encryption, but network effects that keep you from switching…
I use Android but I’m pointing out that encryption behind Apple is better than SMS.
sorry, I thought you were the previous comment, my bad. as for encryption: yes it is better, as SMS is not emcrypted at all…
