is "io.ktor:ktor-client-apache" working or working as good as "io.ktor:ktor-client-android" , in android devices ?

Asking because I have a multiplatform module that contains core network related stuff for iOS, android and JVM. If the answer of previous question is yes then this module doesn’t need to have android declaration

According to the Apache Software Foundation website:

Apache HttpCLient 5.0 stock version, which works well with Android API 19 and newer

Also, the OkHttp engine is a good option for Android and JVM.

Unfortunately, I don’t know.
