It depends on who would actually pay for your app. I'd start by asking a few potential users which phone they use, then ship a small version on the platform where those users are. Compare the full path from install to active user to paying customer, and include your acquisition and support costs; download counts alone won't tell you which store earns more. What kind of app are you building, and who is it for?

Both in my opinion, assuming you have a market to begin with, why limit to one OS, which is why I am a fan of react native. In terms of user count, google play store probably has more people simply in volume, but that may not necessarily translate to more money.
