Android or ios - choose a system for writing a prototype of a mobile application

Our team, working on the project Surprise Me , begins preparing for the stage of writing the application, which will be laid out in the store.

There were differences in the team and everyone has their own arguments. One says that ios has a more solvent audience and this is a great chance to check the audience’s willingness to pay for our service. Another claims that there are more people on android in Russia (we absolutely agree with him on this) and we will be able to find out how popular our service will be.



I have counterarguments for both statements:
1. Having written a paid prototype application, people will not pay for it, because it will be far from ideal, at least in our understanding. I do not want to fall face down in the dirt and immediately dispose of a negative attitude towards myself. At the same time, working on the creation of an ideal product, without testing intermediate hypotheses, contradicts the methodology of customer development, in whose effectiveness I firmly believe.
2. If we write an application on android and it will be popular - this does not mean that people will be ready to pay for it. As a result, we can formulate for ourselves false conclusions.
