PayPal App To Be Discontinued For Windows Phone, BlackBerry, and Kindle


PayPal has announced that it plans to pull support for its apps on the Windows Phone, BlackBerry, and Amazon Kindle Fire mobile platforms, as the company doubles down on its new and updated apps for iOS and Android. Users on the 3 operating systems in question have until June 30 to access the PayPal app. In the blog post the company mentions that on each platform users will still be able to access the money transferring service, through various internet browsers on PayPal's mobile web experience. The closing of the BlackBerry, Windows Phone, and Kindle Fire apps will allow PayPal to focus on iOS and Android applications. In the same blog post, the company reminds customers that they will have to update to version 6.0 of the PayPal app between June 3 and June 30. The updated app includes a renewed priority on sending and requesting money along with a cleaner aesthetic.
