No GPS fix

Hi I have a serious problem with Locus Pro. Track recording won't work anymore. It takes an hour to get the GPS fix, then the route is extremely inaccurate. Samsung Galaxy S7. I am using Locus intensively several years by now so I don't guess it's user error.

Help please

Follow up, the problem was Samsung's über aggressive battery saver modus. Took me some effort to switch off the bad guy.

Hello.

Great!

Various manufacturers have various methods, not all of them are included in the "battery optimization" settings section, they can be scattered over whole settings including security etc. Tips how to exclude Locus Map successfully from all means of the optimization are summed up here: http://docs.locusmap.eu/doku.php?id=manual:faq:gps_lost_fix_android6 or here: https://dontkillmyapp.com/.

Best regards.
