FFS I literally use this all the fuckin time
God fuckin damnit Google
What's next, are you going to kill Gmail‽
Isn't google wallet basically the same thing?
Yes, and it works better. They said over a year ago that wallet would replace GPay, and remind you that it will stop working basically anytime you open it. I'm all for shitting on Google but being upset over this is dumb.
Why don't they upgrade the original product rather than create a new one? Answer: fucking laziness
I have 8 bucks in Google Kajigger, is it moving to the new thing? Do I have to sort out how to move it around? I'm think I had it all hooked up to a bank at one point. Maybe it was a friend that sent me money?
I think I used it to pay for Dunkin Donuts, but both apps list Dunkin Donuts, can I just use the money there?
That's why this is all so annoying, I have to figure out this whole process, old and new, just for 8 bucks.
That's all well and good and fair, but this isn't new news is more my point. Google told everyone, every device, that they were switching to wallet and phasing out GPay over a year ago, in fact I'm almost positive it was when Android 13 released (we are on 14 now). Like the annoyance should've passed by now, you know?
