Launched in 2012, it supports a wide range of devices, including smartphones, smart TVs, wearables, and IoT devices. Initially targeting mobile devices, Tizen quickly expanded into smart TVs and digital signage. By 2015, all Samsung smart TVs ran on Tizen, featuring enhanced user interfaces and robust app support. With continuous updates, the platform has incorporated AI, 8K resolution, and seamless integration with Samsung’s SmartThings.
