Well technically they are right. You are using a web browser on the 
Android platform. There is not an Android native app like there is 
for iOS.  You are not lying when you fill it out the way they 
suggest. Also, you ask others to tell them they use Android, to show 
interest, but you say you won't fill it out.  If you fill it out, 
there is a question about what you want changed, you can ask for an 
Android app. It is not guaranteed, but unless they know people are 
interested they aren't going to do it.
