Remove Google Nearby #137

Closed fbernutz closed 4 years ago

fbernutz commented 4 years ago

Description

With iOS 13 Google Nearby doesn't detect other nearby devices anymore and the library is also not updated within one and a half years which is very questionable for a library which requires access to bluetooth, microphone and location services.

This sadly removes the functionality to find a movie for a movie night with your friends nearby, which was a main part of the app before. The Android App has also issues with this feature, so, it doesn't make sense to keep it.

The app is now not longer asking for permission for bluetooth, microphone or location services which feels great 🙂

So sad that this feature has to go...

I'd love to try Multipeer Connectivity for this.
