- Samsung has shut down the Tizen app store for smartphones.
- The news comes roughly a week after BlackBerry devices reached end-of-life status too.
Tizen and BlackBerry are already dead platforms walking, but they’ve suffered mortal blows that make them virtually impossible to use as alternatives to Android.
Tizen Help reports (h/t: GSMArena) that Samsung shut down the Tizen app store for smartphones from December 31, 2021. The app store was restricted to existing users from June 2021, but the shutdown means even existing consumers will need to look elsewhere.
