Why the Adobe didn't think more about apps for Android system?

To be honest, I use Adobe programs for work, however, I wish I had them with me everywhere, I'am an Android user and what I see is that the company has the same kind of positioning as 8 years ago with the Android system , and with that, they prefer to invest more in the IOS system, of course the Apple has advantages due to hardware and security, but many brands who use Android system, it has evolved in this security issue and even with better processors that make the performance of the devices and of better tablets. Isn't it time for the company to rethink this concept of supplying the products to a single public and specific market? Why not develop an Creative Clouds with Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro and Fresco for Android?

Anyone who knows the answer to this would be under NDA and cannot say. The volunteers on this forum can only give their own opinions and guesses.

Adobe knows who the majority of their customers are on iPhone, iPad, Windows & Mac.  Unfortunately Android & Linux don't represent the majority of Adobe users.

My guess is that it's cost effective to program around a limited set of variables, which is what Apple provides.
