Arc winds down in stages as engineering and security teams move to Dia
What happened
Arc is being shut down in stages, with engineering and security teams shifting to Dia, according to an October 23 report. New account sign-ups stopped on October 22. From November 23, Arc Search will drop AI features including Browse for Me, along with sign-in and sync. The macOS and Windows versions end on December 22, 2026, and the Android version will be fully discontinued; the iOS version keeps a stripped-down browsing feature. The report lists shutdown dates and what each platform retains. Later milestones are still to be carried out as planned.
