Yeah, the range of products is indeed narrow. But narrow in this case is 1.35 billion iOS devices (not even factoring MacOS).

iOS isn't going anywhere in the near future. You can have a long and happy career as an iOS dev. Build a few apps, apply for a job, give it a go. If it fails or your hate it, jump to something else.
