Samsung Apps, we've seen this before. First, you take things away that we barely notice. Then, we notice your favorite coffee mug is no longer on the kitchen counter. Until finally, your toothbrush is no longer in the bathroom. Without so much as a Dear John letter. We heard rumors and whispers, but shrugged it off. First, Video Player was quietly hidden. Then, once you get the 6.1.1 update, you get notifications to "Upgrade" to Google Messages. It seems as if Samsung is slowly getting out of the Apps game. SobI guess I'll start checking out the Google app more now. š«šŖ

Samsung Apps and ServicesSamsung is in the hardware business, not the software business. Instead of creating and maintaining their own apps these days, they are concentrating on the user interface and hardware upgrades. It's much easier to let software companies concentrate on the apps while they concentrate on the devices. The only reason you have mail and messages and some other things is a holdover from the early days when smart phones were born and each company had to make their own apps to work with their own hardware. They left vestiges of those apps through all the updates because they were popular and it didn't take much extra work to integrate them into the UI or into the Android structure. Now that things are changing within Android, keeping those apps current takes focus away from the UI customizations that Samsung users have come to expect.

Samsung Apps and ServicesI've never used Samsung apps. Anytime I did, I just hated them. I've always used Google apps. Google keyboard, Google Messages, third party mail apps.
