Title: Microsoft is putting an end to Windows Mobile support
Post by: Redaktion on January 19, 2019, 13:14:01
The Windows Mobile platform is all but dead at this point. Microsoft will finally let it rest forever this year. The company will withdrawing support for the latest version of its OS, as well as the second-latest, by December 2019. It is recommended that their remaining users switch to another ecosystem that will have continual support, like iOS or Android.

Here is an idea what to do after Windows 10. Bonus: You can protect your privacy by not sharing any personal data with companies like Google. I am using /e/ (e.foundation) on my Galaxy S9 instead of Google Android. It is Android based mobile OS designed with privacy in mind. Does not send any private data like contacts, emails or location to Google. Instead of Google apps it uses open source android apps. So far it works great.
