Apple is paying close attention to the app offerings for its new watch. If your iOS app advertises support for any watch, other than the Apple Watch, prepare for trouble. Apple recently rejected an update to an established iPhone and iPad app because it mentioned support for a non-Apple Smartwatch:
We noticed that your app or its metadata contains irrelevant platform information in the app. Providing future platform compatibility plans, or other platform references, is not appropriate for the App Store. Specifically, your app and app description declare support for the Pebble Smartwatch.
Additionally, Apple has established criteria for Apple Watch developers that reject applications where the primary function is to tell the time.

That's all true, but Samsung's site is by no means the dominant Android market. Google's Play store is. That's the key difference here. The vast majority of Android apps are downloaded from Google's store.
And yes, it's BS that Samsung and other makers load their phones with crapware which can't be deleted, but that's beside the point here. I'm sure there's stuff on iPhones that can't be deleted too.
