Yep! iOS take a bit to get approved, Windows will definitely come before iOS, and Amazon is free. If anyone uses Kindles, I can see about getting it on there quickly!
Thanks for wanting those versions, I agree with you, it should be available on all platforms!
Sketchfab Model Viewing + VR !
Enjoy
"Subnautica now released on Android"
I got a WIndows Phone because a) I was sick to death of Android with its Telstra Carrier Bloat, b) I didn't like the fact that Android seems to be a hackable malware nightmare and c) the phone didn't get software updates! "Want the latest version of Android? Well, f--k you, buyer, you won't get it on that device; you will get a new device and you will like it!"
So I thought - after seeing another article about the Stagefright Malware for Android - 'bugger this, I'm going to get a de-branded Nokia Lumia Windows Phone that will get software updates that Microsoft, not your bloody Carrier controls.'
So I did--and I love it! Windows Phone - actually Windows 10 Mobile, now - is a great OS, with its live tile interface. Don't like the way things are on there? Arrange the tiles however you want! Sure it has its niggles - sometimes the tiles stop working, or the sound goes, or something else - but so do all OS's. I dunno why they say "Windows Phone is dead!" I call Bullsh-t...
Android: Root this, Clockwork that, Malware this, Carrier that... *sigh*
Windows: Update Phone, Reboot, Works.
Transferring files from Computer and vice versa works.
Onedrive works. Sync works except Edge but they'll sort that; unimportant.
Interface works, change it how you like.
Don't want some apps: uninstall them.
Messages and Missed Call notes on your PC: Yup, works.
(Windows 10 cross compatibility is one of my favorite features about it! )
I know! When I got my first missed call message on my computer I was like "what?" then I worked out what was going on and I'm like, "Oh, cool, I can get notifications from my phone on my PC!"
One thing that bothers me - and this is for Windows 10 in general - is that, while I want to like the new Windows 10 Apps, they're missing many things they need! Groove Music, for example, needs the ability to edit MP3 Tag Data, something all music players have had since...
Another thing is that Edge does not synchronize between devices whilst Google Chrome has this down to an art; just sign in with your Google Account to Chrome and there they are, no matter what device you're on. Stuff like this is a miracle when you need to do a reinstall if something gets borked!
And I know, I know... everyone whinges and whines about Microsoft Edge being "oh, no, the next Internet Explorer", but... with extensions support (read: Blessed Be our Holy Internet Cleanser, AdBlock Plus) it's... it's okay. It was growing on me; plain, simple, no bells, whistles or 50-60MB of bloat (looking at you Chrome and Firefox), but then I found none of my Favorites would sync. It made me unhappy because edge is great
Also the "Film and TV" app would be amazing if it had YouTube Support, as well as the ability to be a "real" TV App--to access your TV Tuner for watching and recording TV. Come on, MS...
Now for an update..

Working on the android version until it is bug-free, feature complete, then platforming will come later, platforming is not free and takes a few Apple resources to get started.
Maybe a Gofundme/Kickstarter deal would work in helping platform the Subnautica: Companion application faster, if it feels appropriate and people are willing, after all, I don't plan to make a penny from this. Indeed, the future will be to get the companion application available to as many people as possible.
Sorry for the wait!
