SwipeIt App - Missing from Smart Hub
Posted: Sun Feb 23, 2014 3:53 pm
I've noticed the SwipeIt app is mysteriously missing from the Smart Hub. A quick online chat with Samsung support provided a very innocuous "excuse" that there was a hardware incompatibility issue and, as such, Samsung decided to remove SwipeIt from the Smart Hub. Personally, I suspect there was another vendor who had a very similar application and, in lieu of litigation, Samsung simply decided to remove the app without warning. After reviewing the Samsung site, I've found several people with the same issue: http://www.samsung.com/us/article/know- ... it#RAT_M02
I've done a search across the SamyGo forums and have returned zero results for "SwipeIt" so I can only deduce that there is no previous mention of this issue. Does anyone know of a way to circumvent this myopic decision by Samsung and return the SwipeIt app\functionality to our sets? I'd even consider going with a third-party app if it worked as well as, or better than, SwipeIt between my 55" set (UN55D6050 (U.S. model) running firmware 1031) and my Droid (KitKat 4.4) phone.
Thank you.
