Online Payments Company, Paypal
has announced it will discontinue support
for Microsoft Windows Phone, BlackBerry and Amazon Kindle Fire OS.
PayPal is requiring its
users to upgrade to the latest version of its app for Apple iPhone and Google Android. June 30 will be the
last day for Windows Phone, BlackBerry and Amazon Kindle Fire users to access
their PayPal apps.
In a blog post , PayPay said , "It was a difficult decision to no longer
support the PayPal app on these mobile platforms," Joanna Lambert,
PayPal's vice president of consumer product, said in the blog. "But we
believe it's the right thing to ensure we are investing our resources in
creating the very best experiences for our customers."
The company explained that
Windows, Blackberry and Kindle Fire users will still be able to access PayPal
via the mobile site. Windows Outlook.com users can still enable the PayPal
add-in to send payments from the email app. BlackBerry users can also still
send money via BlackBerry Messenger.
Android
phones running version 4.03 or higher and Apple devices running iOS 8.1 or
higher can use the updated app, which offers a simplified way to send and
request money, as well as a new home screen with relevant transaction details.
