GMS Application, what is it?

[JmfinD]

Does any one know what the GMS Application is on the Honor 8. This is the second software update that I have receive that said it added a new GMS Application. Just curious to what it actually does.

I think it's Google mobility service

I believe it means "Google Mobile Services"
From what I understand device manufacturers use it to ensure upgrades meet standards for phones running Android.

I could be wrong though.
