Everyone is trying to copy Apple's approach of limiting the good stuff to their own platform in the name of market share and revenue. Microsoft has allegedly had an iOS version of Office for a while now but won't release it because they are afraid of undercutting the still-floundering Surface. With Google it makes much less sense; they earn far more from iOS users than the do Android, and some Android handset makers are starting to differentiate from Google's vision (ie Samsung). No great loss; there's a better option for everyone already out there.
