No Running iOS on Android hardware requires kernel-level porting, driver development for device-specific hardware, and an understanding of Apple's boot and security chain. This is deep systems and hardware expertise that vibe coding cannot provide.
What it would actually take: Building it would involve porting the XNU kernel or building a compatibility layer, writing hardware drivers for each target device's SoC, GPU and peripherals, and emulating Apple's boot and security components. The team needs low-level OS, kernel and device-driver engineers, and a deep understanding of both Android and iOS internals.
