I went to that link and it told me my device was not compatible
Android Google Pixel 3a. Does not get more standard than this in the Android universe. So do I need an Apple device?
And yes I have T-Mobile. I still need to install the app to get access.

No idea
Although that's the Google Play Store, so I doubt you'd need an Apple device to install it.
I don't have a convenient Android device on hand to check, unfortunately.

I got "This app is not available for any of your devices"
A work Samsung phone, my own OnePlus 6, and the Android TV "set-top box". Felt somewhat weird; surely it oughta work for something.

Looks like it's only for Android-based smart TVs

That makes sense.
Apple are a hardware company; making an app for someone else's hardware where they already compete doesn't quite make sense. But I bet they didn't like having to learn Android to put it on smart TVs... :-)

If that makes sense, then why not the Android set-top box?
It's just like an Android TV with the OS in the display, only here the chip(s) that run it is (are) in a separate box. In effect, it pretty much is "the TV".

They do support some Android set-top boxes.
I'm guessing that is a grey area as they sell a physical Apple TV box.
Or, knowing Apple, they have a philosophical objection to supporting Android smartphones but Android in other things they will consider. I dunno. I don't work there. And I don't partake in that part of their ecosystem.

Might want to try via web browser.
Works on Firefox on Windows, don't currently have an Android device, otherwise I'd check it out.
