I’m running a version of Android called OxygenOS, and there was a GPS update available in the Aurora Store. However, when I attempted to install it, a message appeared:

“This app normally receives updates from Google Play Store. By updating from a different source, you may receive future updates from any source on your phone. App functionality may change.”

I’m concerned that updating the GPS through Aurora might cause issues with some of my other applications, particularly those I’ve paid for. Is it safe to go ahead with the update?

    If you have the play store installed. Don’t bother. Ignore it. GMS are a critical part of android. If something breaks you may experience higher crash rates. They are updated automatically. So, manually updating is not required.
