It’s not entirely surprising when a company chooses to stop paying for the upkeep and continued development of an app for a product it’s no longer making money on

How much fucking upkeep can an app require to operate a pair of shoes?

You're questioning the sanity of people who even develop shoes that need an app

I'm not questioning sanity, I'm questioning why an app that does nothing but send commands over Bluetooth or whatever needs any maintenance whatsoever.

Android isn't stable is my guess
