Why should there be one? The EAForum website works great on mobile. So my guess is that there is no EA Forum app because it's not needed / wouldn't be that useful, except perhaps for app notifications, but that doesn't seem that important.
From which a recommendation comes to mind for people who want an app: add a homescreen shortcut to the website.
Web apps can do notifications these days
Another advantage of an app may be that you could download posts, in case you go somewhere where you don't have Internet access, but I think this is rare and not a sufficient reason to create an app either.
