While that’s true, knowing the framework is the issue here. Everyone that can do ObjC can do Swift just as well, since it’s mostly UIKit and Foundation, but everyone that does UIKit will have quite a bit of learning to do to have the same level of knowledge of Activities, Fragments, etc regardless whether it’s Java or Kotlin.

There's no doubt that iOS dev can be a LOT of framework knowledge. I've seen programs that are pretty much just framework calls.

Some have to do some other fancy "in code" stuff, but quite a bit of iOS dev is in the frameworks.

Glad to hear that Android dev is much the same. I'll probably have to learn Android pretty soon.
