Barclays Abandons Windows Phone Updates About Removing

I do not know what makes them so long! Financial applications often leave the Windows Phone platform soon, but Barclays remains one of the last banks still to support Microsoft's mobile operating system.

No Stay longer.

Because Microsoft has abandoned the Windows Phone platform, developers and users are slowly leaving Windows Phones. Today, another company decided to remove the Windows Phone app in February (via Reddit). Barclays, one of the banks that still supports the dead platform, abandons Microsoft's mobile platform, and unlike Kik, the company sends a press letter to customers. This decision is obviously made because the existing Windows Phone user base is so small that it does not. It makes no sense to support the platform, and Microsoft itself has relinquished on the Windows Phone platform.

Barclays Bank app was one of the most important apps for many customers, so it is a big loss for Windows Phone users to see it. The Barclays Windows Phone App will be removed from the Microsoft / Windows Store in early 2018.

If you have installed the app, it will not help, as the application is no longer allowed to log in to Barclays Bank's account, the company said. To use Barclays services on your phone, you may need to use the web version or switch to a supported platform, the company said in a note sent to customers.

"We're making some important updates for your mobile banking app, and you will not be able to sign in to your app from your Windows Phone in February, and we apologize for any disruptions," the company said. "We are committed to providing you with the best and safest version of the app, and we are no longer able to meet the extremely high standards we set and deserve The following options will allow you to continue banking quickly and easily, "Barclays explains why they are implementing the change.

As few companies have genuine reasons to stick to shrinking platforms, Barclays has confirmed that its official customers will be removed from the Windows Store by early 2018. At this point, they disclosed that the notice sent to the client informed them of the decision.

Basically, support for Windows phones will be pulled in February, and official apps will no longer allow users to log in.

Instead, they suggest using a web browser or switching to different platforms like Android and iOS, both of which continue to be supported.

This is what the bank said in its message:

"We are committed to providing you with the best and safest version of the app and we're no longer able to meet our own set and high standards you deserve, and we hope the following options will keep you up. Go ahead and execute your bank quickly and easily. "

Barclays then continues to highlight some of the features offered in the latest version of Android and iOS apps, including options to allow users to update details, control cards, select rewards, and discover new features.

Although not specifically mentioned the reasons for leaving, but it is clear why Barclays decided to give up the Windows Phone platform.

Its market share has been finalized, sales are in a downturn, Microsoft has stopped releasing new versions, and the new handsets are hardly available today.

I will be come Back soon with some new updates about Technology
