Some Android Auto users have encountered the problem of "searching GPS" on Google Maps.
CTOnews.com, January 28, many users' Android Auto sessions have been plagued by the problem of "searching GPS" recently.
Many users have found that Google Maps on Android Auto has a "search GPS" problem, which involves multiple car models, smartphone models and Android Auto versions.
However, this problem does not arise when using Google Maps apps other than Android Auto. And, in addition, there are ways to alleviate it. Users reported that the problem occurred only when the phone went to sleep and the screen was turned off.
CTOnews.com learned that some users have changed Google Maps permissions on Android devices to ensure that the app's location permissions are set to "always allow", thus solving the problem. Others have alleviated the problem by turning off optimized battery use.
