This is genuinely very disappointing, I think your app was great and I really enjoyed using it, this was a relatively minor impact, but I thought a useful feature. I am surprised you have thrown in the towel citing bad reviews, but i think that's just the nature of reviews of restaurants, hotels, apps, films. People have very little context or only think in black and white, it's good or it's bad.
I guess there is no point imploring you to bring it back as I have moved to a Pixel 4 XL and I am even more frustrated with Google for not supporting the Daydream platform on there
