Umm actually didn't they invent the windows style GUI and interactivity of the mouse on personal computers?
not sure how much of that they truly "invented" (mouse/trackball has been around for a long time). but they definitely were the first to bring that stuff to consumers in the 'personal computer' market

Let me tell you a story about how Android came to be
He was in a cab in Las Vegas, watching a webcast of the presentation. He made the driver pull over so he could see the whole thing. He said, "Holy crap, I guess we're not going to launch that phone."
Ethan Beard, an early Android business development executive told Vogelstein, "We knew that Apple was going to announce a phone. Everyone knew that. We just didn't think it would be that good."
Google had phone software that was ready to launch at the end of the year, but it looked awful relative to the iPhone, so it was all scrapped and delayed. "What we had looked so ... nineties," said an Android engineer.

Apple launched the iPhone in January of 2007. Eleven months later, in November of 2007, Google showed a video that effectively juxtaposed Google-Android's original pre-iPhone"before" prototype which looked and operated more like a Blackberry button-driven phone, with Google-Android's post-iPhone-launch "after" prototype that heavily-resembled the look-and-feel of the iPhone and incorporated many of Apple's signature touch-screen inventions. In October 2008, T-Mobile released the G1, Google's first Android phone.

Yeah. WIndows kinda swagger jacked apple back in the day. Apple was the first with the consumer desktop environment and mouse
Brehs quickly forget how Google kinda mimicked iOS...and Samsung lost a billion for it
