Google's "lack of marketshare" reason seems to be a bit lacking to me. Windows 8 sold 100 million and they still don't make any apps for it.

In contrast, Yahoo Mail which is barely making any money by manages to make a nice one.

And Vimeo has apps for both WP and Win8.

They make a Windows 8 app which provides access to all of their services (with ads): Chrome.
I'm pretty sure Google makes a ton of apps that work just fine on Windows 8, a user has but to open their browser to access them.
