With this feature, mobile phone operators were able to get information on the strength and speed data of cellular signals of Android phones.
Last April, this data was obtained subject to the user's permission, along with the user's information was deleted so that the user could not be identified. But Google was concerned that this feature might be challenged by consumers or government regulators.
The mobile network insights feature was launched in March 2017. This feature was very useful for mobile service providers.
