   Have fun changing road wheels and track segments 　:)

   Also note that you’ll probably need at least two other people to operate it with you — a driver, gunner and loader.

   I looked it up on the Google Play Store, and you’re not the only one to dislike it. No, I didn’t install it, nor do I have any plans to install it.

   What was a bit depressing were the reviews from people saying that “everyone needs to install it and use it.”

   I’m wondering if Google will sneak this onto our phones by including it in one of the OS updates for Android.

   Apple has already included it as part of iOS 13.5.

   Apparently, you’ll have to turn off auotmatic updates for your iPhone to stop them sneaking it in.

   [Thanks to True Edjillo for the tip there about iOS 13.5]
