I want to learn coding primarily to develop apps on both android and ios. Rather than just jumping to these tracks I assumed it was probably best to learn some other topics that might play into it. If this is my main goal, what tracks should I complete before learning android and ios development ? Or should I just jump straight to them?

I personally would recommend checking out the Java track first :) But again going back to what Dwayne said Python and JavaScript are both excellent languages to start your programming journey!!
I personally started with PHP then moved on to JavaScript, then Ruby and now I am currently learning Python :D
