Vimeo to Discontinue TV Apps in Favor of Casting
Vimeo is discontinuing support for its TV apps on Apple TV, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, and Roku as of June 27, 2023. The company suggests that users cast videos via its mobile app for a better experience. Vimeo's revenue fell 4% YoY to $103.6 million in Q1 2023, and it laid off 11% of its employees in January to cut costs. Vimeo's videos can still be displayed on internet-connected TVs by using Vimeo's iOS and Android apps or a supported web browser to cast them via Apple AirPlay and Google Chromecast to compatible televisions.
