More recently, we received a tip about the Sense Home launcher also vanishing, but closer inspection shows that a total of 14 HTC apps have been unpublished in the last three months. Looking at the latest HTC Corporation activity in App Brain, we can see that the Sense Home launcher and contacts app People were unpublished just this month. 12 more apps, including Calendar, Dot View, and Speak suffered a similar fate in February, while the Mail app that went and then returned is once again conspicuous by its absence. A few of the unpublished apps hadn't been updated in months, so it's likely they simply weren't being used or supported any longer and therefore had no reason to still be on the Play Store. However, apps like Mail, Contacts, and People are supposedly key alternative apps that come preinstalled on HTC devices, so it's a little strange to see those removed. It's not clear exactly why this is happening, but there are a few possible reasons. HTC's smartphone business hasn't been doing all that well in recent years, and supporting a bunch of apps that few people are using doesn't make much sense. That said, there are still plenty more apps from the Taiwanese company still live on the Play Store. Perhaps the new phones HTC plans to launch in 2019 will ship with Android One, thus eliminating the need for its own stock apps altogether. Taking a leaf out of HMD Global/Nokia's book wouldn't be the worst idea. This is all speculation, however, and I've reached to HTC to see if we can get any official word on the matter. 心得： 1. 感謝板友提醒，轉貼新聞要記得附上原連結、原文，並加上心得，避免被水桶。 2. 原先使用手機發文，故僅簡單重點摘錄，請見諒。 3. hTC 的沒落實在很明顯，早期的 Sence 還是主打賣點，現在竟然都下架了，可惜。 -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 180.217.109.65 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/MobileComm/M.1554760115.A.234.html
