Same with Compose even though it's ironically considered native in the Android dev community.
The easiest way to tell that the app is not native is tooltips (those that appear when you long press on a button in a toolbar). For some reason UI frameworks just can't agree to display them in the same way, even if they use material design. Compose's ones are especially bad (some apps like Play store actually have different kinds of tooltips on different screens, meaning they use multiple UI frameworks in the same app).
With Compose apps I actually never had this problems yet.
It looks mostly the same as XML views but some components look and behave wildly different for no apparent reason (tooltips are one of those).
