I wonder if Google's QA is getting worse. I had a broken Android Google Maps update last week where street view had multiple severe bugs: it didn't even show the blue lines when enabling the street view layer, split screen didn&#x

I canceled the return and looked at the Amazon app again. There is no option resembling "incomplete delivery" in my case. It looks like if you ordered only one item they assume you got something and they want it back before issu
