The only place where this happens is in the US. In the rest of the world Android rules with 70% or more of the market share.

Market share is not really relevant about this, what matter's here is which platform drives more revenue and that's iOS pretty much everywhere. These companies are data-driven, they don't choose where to invest based on ideology or geography, but on ROI. iOS brings the majority of the money and so the majority of the investment goes there.
