Vimeo will end support for its TV apps on June 27th 2023

Vimeo, the popular video-sharing platform, has just announced that they will be ending support for their existing TV apps, including Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku. This change will come into effect on June 27, 2023.

This means that Vimeo will remove the TV apps from the app stores, and they will not publish any new releases, security updates, or provide technical support for TV apps. Vimeo is dropping support for these platforms because they believe that their users looking to view Vimeo videos will receive a better ongoing experience by casting via their mobile app, enabling customers to enjoy Vimeo content on their TV.

However, users will still be able to watch Vimeo videos on their TV by using the free iOS and Android apps or by using a supported browser. These apps can be used to cast via Apple AirPlay and Google Chromecast to their television.

Vimeo has been a popular platform for creators and users alike, and this change is sure to have a significant impact on the way people watch and share videos. It remains to be seen how this will affect Vimeo's user base and whether this change will be embraced by users or not.
