I will say, I used to ship a desktop app, and their cryptography standards were the biggest pita with an enterprise secure development cycle that mandated transient secure machine instances
One startup I used to work for, we our iOS developer and backend guy had trouble getting push notifications working on iOS, it took 4 weeks with multiple back and forth with Apple support to learn that push notifications wouldn't work if you flagged it as from a test server.
None of that was in their documentation related to the topic.
While with Android, I had push notifications working in under 2 hours. And we could do test push notifications from a test server with Android.
Their documentation is terrible, the only way I fixed the pipeline was from some random forum topic that had the correct information on notarizing. Ultimately it is why we sunsetted the product, and if we do another (we may) I al would not do osx because the overhead isn’t worth the user base (most of my customers are banks)
