- Strong Competition
- Path's main rival was Facebook and although Path was the pioneer for stickers, they could not beat them.
- Lack of Strategy
- Path's messaging app, Path Talk, did not succeed and was then purchased by Korea's Kakao in 2015, which hoped to profit from the app's popularity in Indonesia, where it had four million users at one point.
- However, that did not pan out and eventually, Kakao decided to abandon the app altogether.
Competing with the Facebooks, Twitters and Instagrams of the world is no easy task.
Path was acquired by Kakao.
