CleanApp AI summary

Google Maps Timeline Error on Pixel 7 Misidentifies Device as Android Go: In the Google Maps app on a Pixel 7, an error message states 'Can't open Timeline on this type of device' and claims Timeline is not available on Android Go devices. This falsely flags a standard Pixel 7 device and prevents access to Timeline.
