The app will automatically download games that I haven't chosen. Especially when I'm not using my phone. If there is a way to turn this feature off, it's not clear. Setting for this app are hard to find and it needs all permissions turned on or it might not work right. I have also scanned my device for viruses in malware. No problems can be found when I do the scan, so that is not the problem.

Same issue as everyone else. Constant error message saying my apps wont run unless this is updated. I emailed them about 2 weeks ago requesting help, and nothing. No response, no acknowledgement, nothing. I've searched online and I've tried everything from restarting phone, clearing cache, and deactivating and reactivating, and it's still giving an error message. Can someone please give some guidance? Holy hell this is frustrating and your customer service is absolutely awful!

I was prompted to update, even though it was up to date. I uninstalled/reinstalled and had to set everything up all over again. However, my location isn't working anymore! I've tried all the troubleshooting steps I could find but I'm not receiving any prompts or options to "always allow" location for my Google Play Services app. it's not popping up in my recent access no matter what I do and it absolutely sucks

I'm so tired of this mess... It keeps eating up storage, it's the largest app on my phone. I frequently have to go clear it's data to give my phone some space. It also freezes, crashes, or gets stuck eating up the CPU and battery, and I have to go clear the data again to fix it. For some reason it is attracting a lot of parody reviews... Unless Google is paying for fake reviews.

No thanks. It will give you lots of error messages saying other apps won't work with it disabled, but most of them work just fine without it if you aren't signed in to a google account. The only tricky part is disabling the notifications to stop the error messages, you have to also disable notifications in the app sending the error message. I like getting rid of this because I like getting rid of it, its my phone, I don't owe you an explanation.
