This crap is completely unacceptable.
The app has 10M+ downloads, and is already filled with ads as it is. I DO NOT want and WILL NEVER want ads as push notifications.
I'm quite sure this isn't allowed on the playstore according to the Play Console Help page. Which states:
Ads must not simulate or impersonate the user interface of any app feature, such as notifications or warning elements of an operating system. It must be clear to the user which app is serving each ad.
And shows this picture:
I now consider GPS Speedometer malware, immediate uninstall.
You're viewing a single thread.
For simple apps like that I usually check out F-droid see if any open source versions exist. Might not be as feature rich but there's two GPS speedometer apps on there
Status Bar Speedometer (Display your current speed as notification) https://f-droid.org/packages/ch.rmy.android.statusbar_tacho/
Blue Square Speedometer (Simple speedometer & GPS viewer) https://f-droid.org/packages/net.nhiroki.bluesquarespeedometer/
Thanks for the reccs. I don't need it to do much more than give me my speed so these'll work great!
Wish fdroid at least tracked app installs (clicking of the download button)
