I don't see either Apple or Microsoft as being the hindrance. In fact,

But I'm pretty sure that both iPhones and Androids are pretty happy 
about being in v6 land since I see them showing up in my logs all the 
time, for the few providers that have lit up v6.

Not on the mobile side. Wifi yes, mobile no.

I'm all for bagging on those two, but it seems pretty unjustified here.

What they need to start doing is testing Apps for IPv6 only access 
capabilitity. This doesn't work today, Apps like Waze, Spotify and others 
do not work on IPv6 only access.

One could just start adding negative reviews to any product that
doesn't work in a IPv6 only network.
