Vehicle position freezes intermittently in ABRP on Apple CarPlay
My setup:
Volkswagen ID.7 Tourer
iPhone
Apple CarPlay
OBDLink for live vehicle data
During navigation, the vehicle position marker in ABRP sometimes freezes while the car continues moving.
The position remains fixed for several seconds, sometimes longer, and then suddenly jumps forward.
This can happen repeatedly during the trip and makes navigation difficult to follow.
Other navigation applications on the same iPhone and CarPlay connection, such as Waze, continue to update the vehicle position normally.
The OBD live data may still be working correctly while the ABRP map position is frozen.
It would be useful if ABRP could investigate GPS/map refresh issues specifically on iPhone + CarPlay.
- Where does this happen?
- ABRP version number (found at bottom of settings menu)

Hi
Can you check if you have “Background permission” for location ABRP in iOS Settings→Apps→ABRP→Location→Always?
