Because lets not ignore the fact that more then 50% of devices won't ever see this update, which makes it moot to suggest how to work around something that was taken away. That's classic Google "ship it and fuck the rest" mentality bubble.
- darren_ 10y agoNothing was 'taken away' for pre-M users either, at least Maps-wise. This article (as originally written, they've updated it since) was stating that a privacy feature that never existed had been taken away. There never was a location services toggle for specifically Maps, and pre-M it's not possible to make one that works (at least, not one that someone who doesn't trust maps with their location should be using).
