Beware that the current app version has a defect: It shows "GPS Assistance data downloaded" even if it doesn't get downloaded (for example, if your WiFi router can't connect to the internet).

If you happen to run in on a Boox (or any e-Ink-with-Android device), please let us know whether it helped, as I'm interested to get such a device.
