Arrr! Avast ye! Samsung’s scurvy Internet app be vanishin' from Microsoft Store, poofin' away like a cannon's smoke!
Samsung Internet, a Chromium-based browser similar to Edge and Google Chrome, recently appeared on the Microsoft Store for a Windows version of the Android browser. However, it has now mysteriously disappeared from the store without any official statements from Samsung or Microsoft. There are a few possible explanations for this unusual situation. It is speculated that the app's appearance on the store in November 2023 may have been an unintentional release, as there was no announcement beforehand. It was also only available in untranslated Korean, suggesting it may have been released before it was ready. Another possibility is that it was part of a specific regional release that made its way outside of the intended region.The exact reason for the app's disappearance remains unclear, but it is likely that it was accidentally released. Reports indicate that the app was missing key features and was noticeably laggy during use. It is uncertain if the app will return to the Microsoft Store or if Samsung will provide any explanation. However, a Windows 11 version with other language options and all the expected features could be popular among users who already have Samsung smartphones and want to use the same browser on their computers.
In other news, Microsoft is planning to make Copilot launch when Windows 11 starts, which could potentially lead to user backlash. Additionally, there have been significant changes to Windows keyboards with the introduction of a new Copilot AI key. Microsoft also hopes to entice Android users to switch from Chrome to Edge through the power of Copilot.
