Samsung discontinuing Sidesync for S9 series phones. Claim future Samsung Flow will replace it

[claykin]

Today I got a notification for an update to Sidesync on my Win 10PC. Post installation a dialog box appeared saying Sidesync is not supported by the Galaxy S9 and S9+ and instead a future version of Samsung Flow will replace it.

I did some searching around and found on the Sidesync site a message saying pretty much the same. So, I decided to try out Samsung Flow. Got stuck because Flow requires Bluetooth and my desktop doesn't have Bluetooth. Plus Samsung claims a "future version" of Flow will replace Sidesync so I figured today's version doesn't apply....

Anyone have any more info on this?

I am special needs and I use Sidesync to go into my phone
so I am worried that they are going to stop it because I can not use my hands to touch my phone :-[

I just tried to load Sidesync & the message you mentioned loaded, so I headed here.

I don't have bluetooth on my PC either. It's always something...

You can get a USB Bluetooth dongle for like $10 if that works for you. I plugged one into my PC. Works fine.

I'm not sure why they wouldn't have it where there would be continuous coverage. Don't get rid of one before the other is finished.
