That's unfortunate. I have been using it for years. Any recommended alternatives?

This is awful, atleast they are offering a refund but there is no point they couldn't just maintain the Android app

Focus is likely the reason they don't want to do it.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.

Every other company maintains two apps, here there is already an existing app.

I'm sure it has nothing to do with apple trying to force people into their ecosystem by every measure possible. That is practically their mission statement.

Same here. I'm afraid my first, vocalised reaction was not a charitable one.
