Facebook discontinues Watch app on Apple TV

Source: 9to5Mac

The Facebook Watch app on the Apple TV is no more. The company confirmed with 9to5Mac that it no longer supports the tvOS platform, even though, strangely enough, it gets a new logo, and the app still appears on the App Store. If you update to the latest app version, you'll no longer get access to it. Instead, you see a message saying the app "is no longer available." It'll mention that you can watch the videos on Facebook's site. However, since tvOS doesn't have a browser, you can only watch Facebook videos when you use AirPlay from another Apple device.

Apple Music's student plan gets a price increase in Canada

Apple Music's student plan gets a price increase in Canada

Apple hasn't announced it, but the price for the student plan on Apple Music has increased slightly. In Canada and the US, it's a jump from $4.99 to $5.99 per month. The UK is expecting a similar jump in British pounds. It has been spotted on the Apple Music webpage, though. The price change seemed to have rolled out between June 21 and 23. The pricing for its monthly individual and family plans remains unchanged. If you want to retain that $4.99, it might be worth looking into the voice plan. But that has more limited access to Apple Music since you can only control the app through Siri.

Back in May, Apple quietly increased the pricing of the student plan in several countries (Australia, New Zealand, the Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Israel, and Kenya), so it might have just been another scheduled rollout for this price change.

Samsung rumoured to launch its 55" Odyssey Ark monitor in August

Source: Samsung

Ever wanted a monitor that can tower over you? Samsung actually announced something like that at CES at the start of the year. Now, the company is reportedly gearing up to launch the 55-inch curved Odyssey Ark monitor in August. Korean outlet ETNews reports that the massive display has undergone some certification programs it needs before it goes on sale.

We don't know much about the Odyssey Ark, except it has a 16:9 4K panel with a stand supporting pivot, tilt, and rotation. We don't know how much Samsung plans to sell, but at least now we have a timeline to watch out for when it will be released.
