Time dilutes everything Google stops supporting Microsoft Windows Phone

Time dilutes everything Google stops supporting Microsoft Windows Phone

[[244004]]

The failure of Windows Phone in the mobile market did not make users abandon this platform immediately, but more and more developers and applications have abandoned this platform. Recently, Google Search app stopped supporting Windows Phone. When Windows Phone users try to use Google Search app, an error message "Connection failed, try again later" will appear. The best solution at present may be to use a browser to access Google.

As the developer of Android, Google has never been an enthusiastic supporter of Windows Phone. Google's own email service Gmail and map service Google Maps have never released corresponding applications on Windows Phone. Windows Phone users who want to use Google services can only rely on browser access.

However, considering the current state of Windows 10 Mobile, Google's decision is completely reasonable. At the end of last year, Microsoft confirmed that its mobile platform had entered maintenance mode, and no new features or new Windows 10 Mobile devices would be launched in the future. At this stage, Windows 10 Mobile devices are relying on Microsoft's regular patches to maintain. By the middle of next year, Microsoft will officially withdraw from this platform.
