It probably varies from area to area, but in the US iOS first is common.

Having developed both, it makes sense.

iOS is by far the more profitable of the two platforms and its support burden is substantially lower — far fewer versions to think about with the bulk of users running 0-2 versions behind, single form factor (only size variants), zero manufacturer skin quirks/bugs to deal with. It’s a more fertile environment for getting up and running and getting the core product shaken out.

Android can come later when you’re out of rapid iteration and have the bandwidth to deal with the idiosyncrasies of the Android world.

In large parts of the world, the iOS and Android revenue share are roughly 50/50 with the higher $/user of iOS and the higher market share of Android cancelling each other out. And that means everyone makes hybrid apps unless they're in a niche where that's impossible, which is rare. Only if they become very successful or raise massive funding (for that country), then they might switch to two native apps.
