In the mobile graph, I wonder why ios and iphone are separate lines.

I think iOS shows something slightly different about the employer's motivation, since they're deliberately including iPad by saying iOS vs narrowly referring to iPhone.

Do you think charting them separately and also together would be better? Or just consolidate them and lose the subtle difference?

I think they should just be clumped together. There's no distinction between Android phones and tablets, so there shouldn't be for ios. Also, the development skills for the the two are largely the same.
I imagine it's because iPads also fall under the category of iOS.
