Fun fact KDE Connect is also available on iOS, so you can connect your android phone with an ipad or iphone with a window. The iOS version is still in beta though and a lot of features are still limited. https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-ios

I don't know anything, but a search yields this KDEConnect repo for iOS https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-ios

There is a beta version of KDE Connect on iOS you can get through TestFlight. It’s not fully featured due to the lack of background processing which means no notification sync and the app must be open to use it, but everything else should be working. I know file transfer and virtual touchpad work. https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-ios

KDE Connect for IOS is in public testing that you can try it. https://github.com/KDE/kdeconnect-ios

Funny enough there has been a commit that solves it and they just abandoned it.

Orgzly - The most featureful. An unfortunate mechanism that can't be turned off saves over your file with re-done spacing -- blank lines are added between headlines automatically, which isn't everyone's style nor is it Org specification. This clogs git, if you're using version control, with changes that are just whitespace. One may notice a toggle to turn off adding blank lines between headlines, but that just means turning blank lines off entirely, forgetting ones that you may have added. Fundamentally, as of now, Orgzly's parser doesn't try to remember the blank lines in your notes that you may have added with purpose.

But for me the most important aspect is org-agenda and in particular with packages like org-super-agenda, org-ql, and orgzly an excellent Android app. You configure the parameters and it shows you tasks/notes grouped/sorted by whatever attributes you want--priority, tags, deadline, keywords, etc. It takes a matter of 3 seconds to search for tasks with priority A to do within 2 weeks, for example (or you can of course pre-configure that search parameter bound to a hotkey--I have agenda views for different aspects of my life like school, work, business, shopping, etc.). The interface provides you the ability to quickly mark tasks and modify their properties in bulk like priorities and deadlines, etc.

I use Orgzly for modifying Org files, with Dropbox to sync my files.

emacs org-mode on linux/macOS with self-hosted syncthing and orgzly on Android works great for me.

But there is orgzly, they even mentioned considering neorg support, as it comes out of Alpha.

Which app did you try? I use Orgzly http://www.orgzly.com/ for getting the agenda on my phone and for small edits. And whenever I want the full experience I run a real emacs on my phone in Termux.

For syncing I use Syncthing.
