Here today, gone tomorrow. With the rapid pace of innovation and competition constantly entering the technology stratosphere, some products don't always last.
iTunes is being replaced by three separate apps on the new MacOS Catalina operating system.Launched in 2011, Google+ was the tech giant's first attempt at creating a social network, to compete with the likes of Facebook and Twitter. The platform was integrated with Photos, Hangouts and even YouTube. At one point, consumers were required to make an account to leave comments on YouTube videos or sign into Gmail. In 2015, the company announced its disbandment of the requirement.
The platform officially shut down in April, four months ahead of its initially planned timeline after a bug was found in its API in November of 2018. The bug exposed the data of over 50 million users leading Google to cut its ties early.The discount movie ticket subscription service once granted subscribers access to a movie a day in the US for a monthly fee of only $US9.95.
The transition rolled out with Apple's latest operating system update, macOS Catalina. Despite the sunset, Mac users with a pre-Catalina OS can still access their old iTunes and the software still resides on millions of Windows machines.This popular email app also faced a shutdown in April of this year. The app was first launched in 2014 to increase email productivity, allowing users to create bundles, snooze emails and set reminders.
