Google is killing another one of its apps, but this one probably deserves to die

Google has become somewhat infamous for shutting down its apps and services as soon as they show any signs of slowing down, and that doesn't appear to have changed in the new year. As reported by 9to5Google, the company is shutting down the Google Shopping app on iOS and Android in the coming months and will instead route users to the web experience. The apps will continue to function through June, but they will stop working after that.

"Within the next few weeks, we’ll no longer be supporting the Shopping app," a Google spokesperson told 9to5Google when asked about the impending shutdown. "All of the functionality the app offered users is available on the Shopping tab. We’ll continue building features within the Shopping tab and other Google surfaces, including the Google app, that make it easy for people to discover and shop for the products they love."
