    This info was directed at users who have problems.
    Not users like yourself that do not run into problems.
    I have never had any problems no matter what phone I use or GPS app.
    But I do not load my smartphones up with every GPS I can get my hand on.
    Can only use one GPS app at a time anyway.
    Plus I have enough smartphones to test the different GPS app that are out here.
    But stick to only 2 that I test all the time.
    That being Sygic and TomTom have no need to have other ones.
    But those users who do want to have more than one GPS app cool along with all the different music app.

    It is the 1% that have all types of problems with GPS apps and phones crashing all the time.

    Look at the Google store comments when it comes to any GPS app.

    When you look at all the Android 5 and 6 smartphones still in use.
    Like you said the GPS apps use a lot of memory.
    A lot of these phones do not have enough ram to support these newer GPS apps.

    I think somewhere down the line even Android version up to 7 will be dropped maybe even Android 8.

    You're right. There are many users that still hang on to very old phones or, like some time ago a truck driver came to me with a very old device witch he bought it with 10 $ and he wanted to have on it the best GPS software navigation. I ask him how much money he make with truck driving and if he think that the GPS is some how not important enough to invest a little more in it. He make money using gps to guide him to an address... Also there are many users that not have official software on their phones and from my experience this causes a lot of problems. Android is....android

    Side loading can be a problem for those wants safety first only use Google Play Store. Untouched versions with the proper Hash are OK.
