Nor did the ones targeting Android, iOS and IoT LCD displays.

What is an IoT LCD Display and who is targeting them in the same way they target Android and iOS? Sounds like some class of hardware, but only thing I can find by searching is toy projects hooking up an LCD to a RaspberryPi or Arduino

It is just what I remembered to type to mean any kind of screen being used in IoT scenarios, from car displays, factory control units, plane dashboards, cranes, ATMs, entertainment systems, biology cell screeners ...

They are targeting them the same way as iOS and Android in the sense that those type of applications are native to the underlying platform without any kind of browser playing the role of an OS.
