Should be much better

My google LSA no longer opens. I get notifications, but I can not open the app. This appears to be linked to the iso 18 update. It also looks like the app has not been updated in a year. Google has the resources to have this app running very smoothly and right now it does not run at all.

Very disappointing.

Google can and should do better.

Monopoliezed

Google guarantee has monopolized any industry that is now being forced to use this. They give a bunch of excuses why your ad isn't working and why you're not climbing the list. The reality is, if you as a small business owner can't afford what the bigger companies can then you're just gonna get buried at the bottom of their list. Also their app doesn't work and they're constantly changing terms and conditions which will shut your badge off if not caught.
