I think there's a lot of truth to that. Microsoft is doing the same thing, making the OS and built-in apps good enough that you don't need so many 3rd party apps. In other words, more like a real computer. It makes for a better overall experience, so long as you can still get all the popular standalone apps you want. With Android, you can. With Windows, not so much.

iOS's simplicity is what made it so popular. But people are now using their mobile devices more than ever and iOS has fallen way behind. It is totally reliant on developers and the quality of their apps right now, and even then it is missing major OS functionality.
