A lot of those buttons have been there since the app launched and I think were meant to be a bit fun and just to fill space until something better came along but nothing ever replaced them.
The biggest annoyance for me is the lack of any gradient info on the app. the gradient map is impossible to read in game (and broken in London!) and could be easily solved by having it’s own page in the companion app.
Sorry that was maybe a bit serious for this thread!
