Ok so MS with Samsung announced another great feature that should just be on every Android Phone but is singled out to only certain samsung galaxy phones like Phone screen mirroring and its called Apps which essentially let you run android apps on pc. Well after one of the Windows engineers posted about it on the windows 10 reddit this was my response. I am probably more angry because of all the stupid exclusivity announced today on the avengers game exclusive to the PS4 and having to wait a month to play Control DLC on my xbox but here it is anyways. Sorry just need to vent!
"You know I was really really excited about Your Phone App since I had been forced to go with Android Phones because you guys just dropped windows phone which I loved. I was even really excited at the beginning when ALL android phones were equal to Your Phone App. When Phone Screen Mirroring happened, I was still excited because my midrange galaxy a7 was able to do it..... Then you guys came up with this stupid exclusivity with samsung when you made certain features work only if they came preinstalled with the link to windows service on top of the your phone app and since my A7 which had perfect screen mirroring up until that point no longer worked just because you signed something that greatly neuters the your phone app which would have been an awesome app. The craziest part is I can literally go on APK Mirror, download the Window Link service apk that apparently magically only works and preloaded on few samsung phones and have it working again on my A7. It literally is a 1mb apk file that pretty much only adds a quick link icon in notification. Now seeing the the app feature is only for specific samsung is absurd. I really wanted to go all in on this app but you have made what could be an AMAZING App into some stupid contractorial hunk of crap.
And normally I would be okay with this if it was you trying to give a big middle finger to Google because to how they treated you when you tried to have a Windows phone and run apps on it but guess what you abandoned us and you forced us on Google or iOS so you're even worse that you just went with Samsung then going with all Android because you're the one who's forced is to abandon your platform and now I pay for a high-end phone and I don't get all the features just cuz you want to go in with Samsung to piss Google off how is that fair or cool at all."
