You mean Google bundling their apps with spyware, then sending me ads based on the info gathered is not adwarecrap?
- sophacles 4y agoIts adware. It's also better than a lot of apps that fall into the crap category. For instance, maps will show me maps that are farily accurate. Many of the bundled apps i would get in the past - verizon maps or whatever - weren't actually able to do their purported job, just display ads until crash.
- danuker 4y agoIn the past few years, the Google experience has been devolving. GMail loads a ton of JS, app sizes are larger and apps are slower, and Maps won't even show me the name of the town I'm currently in, while navigating (and the UI is terrible). If it weren't for traffic data and good geocoding, I'd be using OsmAnd all the time (the overall UX is about the same).
