Description

I noticed that quite some apps are picky. They are not happy with the (gapps-free) location service provided on my phone, but explicitly want "google play services". An example is the German Mail app, but some more as well.

What can I do?

Is it misconfiguration at my phone?
Is it sloppy programming - and should app providers be blamed for that?
Or should / could UnifiedNlp be extended by a component which pretends "I'm google play location services" ?

Research direction

No files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by clarifying whether the request is for a UnifiedNlp compatibility component that presents Google Play location services, then determine the required Android integration and expected behavior. Done would require an agreed scope and an implementation or documented decision.
