How is 'Lazy Installation Package' different from a normal offline map update?

First of all, we at XGODY recommend using the normal update, because there are fewer files to download and the map can be updated quickly.

Second, 'Lazy Installation Package' is used when the map cannot be updated normally, or the navigation map file is damaged. This installation package can solve more than 90% of offline navigation problems.
