Mine too, but as you and I well know this is not required for any essential function of the bike. And you can remove it at any time, yeet it into the bushes if it annoys you, or replace it with a newer and different phone running whatever you want however you want. If a rock takes out your mounted phone, you can pop down to the Dollar General and buy a $40 prepaid jobbie that'll at least map you home, and even so your bike will work without it.

I don't need any badly designed, dumbass user interface, potato processor, crap-for-a-screen electronics to be integrated into the bike. That's stupid.
