Hi Pawel,

thank you for reaching out to us. I understand that you haven’t changed any settings. The reason the application now asks to enable the accessibility service is that we’ve changed the way the screen is turned off. We switched from an outdated solution, which required the app to be set as a device admin, to a new method using the accessibility service. This service must be enabled for Locus Map in the system settings.

Marek, Locus team

Assign permissions and you're done.

For me it was important that the permission was allowed at the very bottom . But that's different for every phone. You can ask chatgpt.

Hi Pawel,

some Xiaomi devices have issues with accessibility services. Check out this Reddit topic and let us know:

It seems that enabling Auto Start should help.

I've allowed Locus and BRouter to autostart in background.

I've reinstalled apps

It still doesn't work

I checked settings and everything looks fine and I still get this prompt about permissions.

My phone is Xiaomi Mi 9T, Android 11
