What made you choose to build an iPhone app before an Android app? I'm curious where that debate stands in the last few years as I haven't seen the arguments for a long time.

Main reasons for me are speed, quality, and showing proof of market.

I have worked on Android previously, but I'm much more familiar with iOS. In a space with competition, product quality is one of the important factors to gain user interest. That's also the reason I didn't go with React Native, since the tech needs will grow to a point where I won't be able to provide a good enough UX. Once I've proven value, I can hire an Android dev.
