It looks like HTC is going to be refocusing its efforts this summer, starting with announcing that it will be dropping HTC Watch support in 6 European countries come May 31. These countries include Spain, Italy, Sweden, Norway, Denmark and the Netherlands. Due to the massive unpopularity of this application, this won’t affect too many of you. HTC released this comment:
“As we continue to deliver new content for HTC Watch, we’ve made the decision to focus our efforts on markets with the highest engagement. After May 31, we’ll discontinue support for HTC Watch in countries with less application traffic”.
There is a solid alternative in Google Play Movies, which would obviously be a solid fallback plan— however, the Google service is only available in Spain, with none of the other countries listed above.
If you’re from one of the above countries and know of some good alternatives, let us know below in the comments!
