>That same basic strategy persists today, since macOS, iOS, iPadOS and tvOS are all ostensibly the same operating system with different interfaces. That seems a stretch, MacOS, iOS, iPadOS, tvOS seems like the Windows ME, Windows 2000 problem but 100 times worse. For instance my mother searches for a covid tracking/checkin app on the iPad app store because she only has an iPad and it isn't even there despite running fine on iOS, it's just the developer is expected to put in the extra work to specifically support iPads so they never bother. Maybe there is some secret option somewhere to show iPhone apps but she certainly can't find it, or even begin to understand why my Dads iPhone can have the app but not her iPad.
