Judging from KDE's Kirigami apps and Subsurface on Android, I would not describe Qt Quick apps as native-performing or feeling.

Last time I used Qt Quick, native looking widgets were outside of its scope. You're meant to define the styling you want for all of your widgets, and Qt will render them consistently across platforms.

Out of scope for Qt Quick, perfectly in scope for Qt Quick controls. It looks very native on all the platforms I’ve tried, likely due to their experience with Qt Widgets.

Nice, thanks for pointing this out. Qt Quick Controls weren't around, or at least weren't available on the platforms I was developing against, like 9 years ago.

Because you’re judging one that don’t try. There are demos of Qt Quick apps emulating Android very closely.

What Qt Quick Controls 2 demos on Android would you recommend? Are they pre-built or do they require compiling myself?
