FYI, Authy works on the M1 Macs and is available on the App Store without sideloading.

I am not sure that insulting people is a good way to get them to give you what you want.
Not insulting anyone, stating the facts, how long have the M1 macs been out for, still hardly no movement on iOS/iPadOS M1 Mac apps. Very disappointing. ?♂️
Really, you don't think iOS developers might be feel insulted if they read your post calling them lazy?
FYI The M1 Macs have been out for less than four months. Right now their installed base is tiny compared to iOS or Intel MacOS.
Doubt it, they might be busy getting their apps ready for the M1 Macs ? most likely not though ?♂️?
This is just not true. Most android apps are coded to support multiple screen sizes and resolutions due various OEM approaches. This had the ugly period before Lollipop (Android 5) but what you get today is just amazing.
On top every Android gives you possibility to set screen DPI to your liking - and apps have to follow...
Another example of Android binaries being screen-universal are frameworks like Samsung Dex that give you desktop Android experience if you plug your phone to TV, Windows 10 computer or even Mac... Its jawdropping...
I guess we will have to agree to disagree. I'm curious if you have used an iPad and also an Android tablet as your primary computer for any length of time? I have done both on current versions of both OS. My opinion stands. Tablet/large screen support for the majority of Android apps is just terrible. There are a small percentage of standout (big name) apps that are well designed for tablets on Android; but it's a small percentage.
It's different in the phone segment where many Android apps are at parity.
Lets stay on disagreed.
My response relates to untrue statement:
"Basically Android apps are phone apps. They are designed for small screens, and usually focused on vertical orientation"
iPad apps on iPad - will give best visual experience.
But try iPhone app on iPad and it will look mostly poor.
Android binaries are universal.
On all android devices - screen resolution and DPI are adjustable.
Android phone app will never look that bad on Android tablet.
If the DPI is small - you can regulate screen resolution and DPI in the system settings.
Plus - on better tablets like Samsung - there is a desktop (Dex) experience, which does not exist on iOS devices.
