I searched for the holy grail of cross-platform goodness like a fool for years. I now have my first native UI android application on google play and I don't regret the decision. I made a prototype and then optimized it in ways I wasn't able to do in html or react-native. (try downloading and caching pictures rendered in a listview asynchronously while keeping the scroll smooth) I now don't have an iOS version, but in my opinion having a finished product that is already gaining traction makes up for the lost time of learning to make the same thing for iOS.

There really is no such thing as a free lunch. If you want to skip having to learn the native platforms, you're going to have to put up with your app having at least one giant external dependency in it. (Native iOS app developer here, dabbled in React Native and went "nope" as soon as I saw how it worked and how heavily it depended on 3rd party components.)
