<!-- speakable-start -->

**Best for:** Shoppers visiting major malls in South Africa who require assistance with indoor navigation.

<!-- section:pm-actions -->
### PM Action Plan (Next Best Moves)

- [ ] [SUNSET] Sunset the application because the 9-year development gap makes technical recovery unviable → eliminate brand drag.
<!-- /section:pm-actions -->

<!-- section:outlook -->
### Outlook: Declining

The retail navigation market has consolidated around high-frequency, cloud-connected mapping services that offer real-time store data. Maps of Malls is effectively obsolete, as its static, unmaintained data cannot compete with the accuracy of modern, platform-level navigation tools.

- 🔴 The 9-year update gap confirms the app is in maintenance-free status, which guarantees its eventual removal from store search results.
