Fluidity problems
I've been using ABRP premium with Android auto for a year and lately I find a lack of fluidity on the interface.
I don't have this problem with waze or maps.
I have a smartphone. Pixel 8a with Android 16
Is it Android auto that's causing compatibility problems, or ABRP?
- Where does this happen?
- ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

Hi
Thanks for the feedback. Is it the whole UI that is slow or just the map?

L’avancement de la flèche sur la carte n’est pas fluide que ce soit avec la carte de base ou la carte satellite (voir vidéo)
Ce n’est pas normal ?

No this is not the normal behaviour. We will look into it. Does it always lag like that or does it work initially and later on stops working properly?

Le comportement est toujours le même, ce n'est jamais fluide
J'ai l'impression que c'est venu avec une mise à jour : Android 16 ? Ou Android auto ?
Ça fonctionnait très bien il y a 2 ou 3 mois

According to the bugreport here, the app version was 6.1.5 when you reported this 3 days ago, however 6.1.7 is the latest version. Please check if the issue persists on that version.
I also fixed one minor issue that I saw, that could cause the map to be a bit laggy, but it didn’t look as bad as in your video. So if it doesn’t help to update to 6.1.7 please also check the upcoming 6.1.8.
In the meantime you could also generate an android bugreport as described here:
https://developer.android.com/studio/debug/bug-report?hl=fr
You should generate it after doing a short drive where the map was laggy (should be good enough to generate it once you stopped and parked the car, doesn’t have to be exactly when driving, but should be close afterwards).
You can upload that file to your google drive and send me the link to samuel@iternio.com, then we can check the local logs, if we can see anything which could explain the slow map movement.

Je suis passé en 6.1.7 hier sur mon Pixel 8a et ça n’a pas changé le lag
Cela ne pourrait pas venir d’un paramètre sous Android 16 que j’aurai activité ou désactivé genre économie d'Energie
Ce qui est étonnant c’est que Waze et Maps sont fluides…

Hard to say, i tried to reproduce this behaviour but i couldn’t. If the rest of the app is smooth (like the buttons and menus) then it could as well be a problem with the map rendering engine, that only happens in certain situations. The bug report mentioned last time would help here to identify potential issues.
Also apps have app-specific energy settings, you can of course try to turn it on or off to see if it makes a difference. You can find those settings when you long click the app icon and then go to app info.

Bonjour
J’ai fini par réinitialiser mon Pixel 8a car Android auto ne fonctionnait pas correctement
Ça résolu le problème de fluidité ABRP qui ne semble pas utiliser le même moteur graphique que waze ou maps
