Maybe not nefarious but its crazy that my gps navigation app prompts me to start taking pictures while driving to improve accuracy.

- matt_heimer 5y agoMight be related but not the same thing as I've experienced. I'm in maps (not navigating, usually just selecting a location) and driving and I get a promote to improve the accuracy (similar to the one where you'd rotate your phone to calibrate the compass). I am not trying to use AR and the prompt doesn't take me to AR, it just wants to scan the area with the camera and then its done.
