IIRC a quarter of all active smartphones are iPhones globally. I'm not in the US, lots and lots of iPhones in circulation here. Also, no Briar on nearly all of those Androids, so they're just as reachable as iPhones.

The APK can be fetched from FDroid and be shared over Bluetooth sharing. On iPhones, sorry, but Europe it's basically Androidlandia.

And people are supposed to just figure that out while under rubble?

Only Eastern Europe. Western Europe (incl Germany) and the Nordics have between 30-60% iPhones. [0] Also Albania, for some reason.

That's also pretty much the browser distribution you get when looking at analytics data from various European countries, and it matches what I see people use here (Germany).

Well, I'm from Spain and I can perfectly say that Spain, Portugal, France and Italy are not an iPhone domain by a huge margin.
