It is advised by Google (https://developer.android.com/develop/sensors-and-location/location/migration) to use Play services instead of framework API (what we use now for location,..). These Play services are actively maintaned by Google and should ease of use of Android API.

It seems like a way to go in the near future (if allowed by Qt)

I wonder how that will work on devices without Google Play - e.g. Huawei - if Play services would become a required dependency, maybe those devices would not be able to run MM app, or require complicated installation?
