Hmm... A bit personal, but Python's old school at this point, and so Javascript might feel like the closest.

Modern-er languages for mobile devs have more language support for building apps in my personal opinion.

Python has never been a big language for app development… no idea why you would call it old school.

To answer op, Swift for iOS; Kotlin on Android.

Thanks. Yeah, I wasn't looking for python based frameworks, but rather other languages that are at least somewhat similar and easier to learn/transition to.
