Right now Tizen is designed to appeal to two camps: users who like the idea of an open source operating system that’s not tightly controlled by Google, and device makers and carriers who like the idea of any operating system that they have more control over than Google does. But for the vast majority of users, control over the look, feel, and even behavior of a phone isn’t the issue. What they want to know is if they’ll be able to use their phone for common tasks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, web surfing, and gaming. Tizen phones don’t necessarily need to have an App Store-like list of nearly a million games and apps available on day one. But if the Tizen app marketplace doesn’t have at least a few great apps right out of the gate, there won’t be much reason for anybody to spend money on a Tizen device.
