Pixel 4a, Android 13, latest updates installed

Navigator 7.3.32 arm64-v8a, display always on option = YES ("Display immer eingeschaltet = ON")

Until recently, the navigator kept the display on during navigation, but

for some days now, the display first gets darker, then it gets blank

and the screen locked.

I assume, the problem occurs since the last Android 13 update

My question is: What else do I have to set to keep the navigator

from "blanking" the screen after ... 5-10 seconds

this is problem with pixel phones, whic has already been addressed

you need to update Navigator

The play store doesn't show a newer version (Last update = Jul 10, 2023).

So how should that be updated then ?

You can access the beta version here: http://download.mapfactor.com/mapfactor_navigator.apk. Before installation, please ensure you have permitted the installation of APKs in your phone settings.

Well, I usually do not install software from other sources.

When will that beta software be rolled out to the play store?

tomas

within a week

Well, here I am again.... Now with a Pixel 8a, Android 14, and the latest navigator version (7.3.51) from the google play store ...

... and again the same problem. Screen blanking after a few seconds.

So what to do now?
