Microsoft has been working hard to bring their top products across the Android and iOS platforms. Their release of Office 365 for iOS finally gave Apple's mobile platform users access to the latest version of Office. Their OneNote application was also recently updated on Android and iOS with a new consistent interface to match their own platform.

While the apps resemble something from the Windows family rather than a native iOS app, its not likely something that Outlook fans would complain about.
