Why are there so few open source weather apps for iOS, compared to the very many that are on Android?

I generally like Android from the perspective of more availability to the ecosystem. I think there’s even an environment to run android apps easily on desktop too or any environment for that matter.
In general open source solutions can simply reach more people, which is why there’s more projects that are Android based.
