Great. Smartphone navigation (powered with cellular GPS system) together with offline features being followed and upgraded are important.
Any system on the Earth orbits is under certain difficulties and threats due to debris and launches boom, creating even more. GPS signal is shaded as well.
Hence, keeping track and history map offline is a strong enhancement for navigation.
The space industry itself is doing its job, most of the time looking down to the Earth with support.
Pioneers go with maneuvering engine designs (for instance, Starlink reported more than 1000 maneuvers for the ‘first bunch’ launches).
Before the sophisticated engines go to the orbits there are numerous tests, and in case of large number launches of one particular system, the amendments go after launch, I believe.
There is one more way to complete the final checks on the subsystems (like [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]), which conveys microgravity experiments instead of orbital vehicles.
