World of Warcraft players will only have a few more months to use the mobile Companion App on iOS and Android, as Blizzard announced that the free app will be retired soon. The World of Warcraft Companion App, launched in 2018 by combining the Mobile Armory and Legion Companion apps, will no longer be supported when The War Within is released.

The app is not compatible with any World of Warcraft: Classic activities. At the time of writing, the WoW Companion App was last updated on March 19, when Dragonflight Patch 10.2.6 was released.

But despite its nifty features, the World of Warcraft Companion App's days are now numbered. Blizzard confirmed via a blog post that the Companion App will be retired when The War Within pre-patch goes live.

However, players can chat with their Battle.net friends and communities via the free Battle.net mobile app. But until the companion app is fully retired, World of Warcraft players can
