In a way it isn't just as simple as learning Swift/ObjC it is about learning the framework whether you're Kotlin on Android or Swift on iOS the real things you learn are about Android and iOS, right?
I think it is easy to understand that someone would want to take existing knowledge of React (React is to JS & HTML as iOS is to Swift) and get running really quickly.
These days given that for 90%+ of apps you'll see on either App store you can develop a very similar App in a tech you already know like HTML, CSS & JS especially with React, I think the motivation is really easy to understand.
Another point I would make is that JS especially is far more ubiquitous than something like Swift or Kotlin. ObjC is different enough to C/C++ and variants to be also quite niche.
Why would you learn another niche language when you can use what you already know to build Apps for 90% of use cases. As a web developer I honestly don't understand this mindset :P
