Kobo gone from Windows 8?

mgmueller · 12-04-2013, 07:15 PM

I hadn't used the Kobo app for a few months on my Windows 8 tablets.
Now I wanted to re-install the app again, but couldn't find it.
In my archive, it then says "not in the store anymore"?!
Is this just a momentary glitch?
Or did I miss something? Is Kobo gone from Windows 8 for good?
It's no biggy, I won't read much on any tablet anyway. I'll stick to my Kindle Paperwhite or Kobo Aura HD for example. Still...

I think, based on something I skimmed on their twitter feed, is that it's being reworked, with no ETA as of yet.
