## FAQ

No, we recommend removing the plugin code for a cleaner user experience, but this is optional.

**Are there replacement plugins?**

No replacement plugins are being provided. This change reflects evolving web development practices.

**How will I know if my app is affected?**

We will send two developer alerts to all applications that have used these plugins recently: the first will provide the initial 3-month announcement, and the second will be sent one week before the discontinuation date. Please ensure your developer account email is up to date to receive these important notifications.

**Can I get an extension on the timeline?**

The Feburary 10, 2026 date is final to allow us to focus resources on modern platform features.
