It's tempting to think of Tizen as an also-ran in the smartphone world next to powerhouses like Android and iOS, but that's not entirely true when Samsung has sold 1 million Z1 phones in India since January. In fact, there are now signs that the Korean firm is doubling down on its partly in-house platform: Reuters sources hear that Samsung is planning to release "several" more Tizen phones later this year at a range of prices. While there aren't more details yet, the move suggests that Samsung is confident that it can expand Tizen's audience relatively quickly.

There's certainly a lot of pressure to do that. Samsung has been on less-than-friendly terms with Google because of its sometimes aggressive attempts to build an ecosystem on top of Android. The more Tizen phones Samsung sells, the more it reduces its dependence on someone else's platform for success -- it can promote its own services and stand out in a market where almost everyone else is relying on Google software. You probably won't be buying a flagship-class Tizen phone any time soon, but it's evident that Samsung is determined to avoid Bada's slow fade into obscurity.

      Tizen OS apps
      By Sau
      Hello,
       
      I have Samsung TV (qe55q80datxxh) with Tizen OS and unfortunately it doesn’t find necessary apps on its store. I.e. App called “TV Zone” (https://tvzone.app) - it supports Tizen OS, but on Samsung store it is not visible. Is there any way to install this app in Samsung via store or like a third party app using usb stick (is it even possible?)?
      Txanx!

      TIZEN: Deeplinking in Tizen Web App
      By jerry
      I have created two hosted web apps on Tizen. One serves as a launcher app, and the other functions as a receiver app, responsible for displaying the page initiated by the launcher. How can I achieve this? Any suggestions?
      (Note: Both are hosted Tizen apps.)

      Audio capture with USB microphone on Tizen TV
      By Blackbird
      I plugged a USB microphone into TV to record external audio. In my .NET app I can detect it with AudioManager.GetConnectedDevices(). To record audio I set the privileges (microphone) and follow the instructions here:
      https://docs.tizen.org/application/dotnet/guides/multimedia/raw-audio/
      I tried both methods sync and asysnc:
      https://docs.tizen.org/application/dotnet/api/TizenFX/API11/api/Tizen.Multimedia.AudioCapture.html
      https://docs.tizen.org/application/dotnet/api/TizenFX/API11/api/Tizen.Multimedia.AsyncAudioCapture.html
      I instantiate AudioCapture or AsyncAudioCapture objects and when I invoke the Prepare() method the app crashes without any exception or error message.
      Simplified code snippet:
      AudioCapture audioCapture = new AudioCapture(44100, AudioChannel.Mono, AudioSampleType.S16Le); int bufferSize = audioCapture.GetBufferSize(); const int RecordingSec = 1; bufferSize *= 10 * RecordingSec; audioCapture.Prepare(); // THIS LINE CRASHES byte[] buffer = audioCapture.Read(bufferSize); The same result is on two different models (Tizen 6.0 and Tizen 6.5).
      How can I record audio from microphone on Tizen TV? What am I missing?
