On my mac book how I search for iPhone apps on the Apple app store?

I just wanted to see what iPhone apps are available using my Macbook.

I can only see what is available for MacBook and not iPhone.

GPTCHAT gave the following instructions:

In the App Store, there should be a section on the left sidebar labeled "iPhone and iPad Apps." Click on that section.

macos sonoma14.2.1 (23C71) is my version and I do not see a section on the left sidebar labeled "iPhone and iPad Apps." Has it been moved?

iPhone 13 mini, iOS 17

Use iPad App on Mac Hi, Supposedly it is possible to use iPad apps on Macs with Apple Chips ( https://appleinsider.com/inside/macos-monterey/tips/how-to-run-ios-apps-on-macos-monterey-in-2022 ) However, when I try to find the app I want to run, it is not listed in the apps that I purchased, even though on my iPhone it is definitely an App that I have downloaded and installed (the App is free, so technically I did not "purchase" it, but other free apps do show up on my list on Mac) Why would that be? How can I find that app? (I do have 2 different Apple IDs but it does not show up under either ID) See screenshot from the iPhone, and screenshot of the AppStore on Mac, where I am looking for the app: iPhone: Mac:

Why can I not find common apps in Apple's app store on the MacBook? I have a MacBook Air with the M1 chip running iOS Sonoma 14.4.1. I often cannot find common apps in Apple's App Store, REGARDLESS OF WHETHER I SEARCH UNDER "MAC APPS" OR "IPHONE & IPAD APPS." I find this incredibly frustrating. I never had a similiar issue when I was a PC/Android user and searched Google's Store. Here's the latest example. When, on the MacBook, I search the App Store for "tiktok", "tik-tok", or "tik tok", the well-known app does not appear in the search results. This occurs under the tab for "Mac Apps" and under the tab for "iPhone & iPad Apps." I well understand that sometimes there is no app designed for the MacBook. If I search the App Store on my iPhone 15, I immediately found the iPhone version of the TikTok app. Why can't I search for what's available for the iPhone on the comfort of the MacBook? Why does the tab "iPhone & iPad Apps" even exist in the MacBook version of the App Store? And, I've searched this community for an answer and that does not come up either. Could anyone explain how to find apps, or, at least, why Apple has set up the App Store to hide common apps? Very frustrated and exasperated consumer
