It's mostly that the desktop app is Python and C, and there wasn't a clear path to make that same code base run on mobile, so the mobile app is just a reader.

It's mostly that the desktop app is Python and C, and there wasn't a clear path to make that same code base run on mobile, so the mobile app is just a reader.
However for Semaphor, our encrypted group chat and file sharing tool (akin to IRC, to Slack or HipChat) the internals are written in Go and it's the same code base on all platforms, including mobile. That source code is also published for security review. We plan to migrate SpiderOakONE to use that same stack so the mobile experience is the same as desktop.
