Randomly stops logging until I unlock phone

Heya

In recent months when I use locus, I can't rely on it.

After a few minutes walking I'll unlock my phone which makes it suddenly acquire my position and so instead of an accurate route, there is a straight line.


This happened again twice today during a 4 mile walk and it's really frustrating.


My phone is a Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite and I have battery saver disabled for locus, I have locus running in the background and also have it to autostart.


I'd appreciate any advice please as it's making locus unusable for me.


I've attached a screenshot and you can see the 2 straight line areas at the bottom. Oh, and this wasn't a built up area, it was at the side of a huge river with plenty of clear sight of the sky.


Thanks for any help. 🙏

Many thanks.

I already had all the advice settings under control but the 2 things I've done following your advice is granted locus permission to modify system settings (which I didn't want to do) and also lock the app into RAM.


One thing I thought of too is that I have my locus directory on the SD Card and so I've moved that into the internal memory now.


Fingers crossed and thanks again
