    @Marinus-van-Deudekom said in Starting navigation on Android Auto:

    If you start a "route" from Android Auto, the tracklog will also start automatically.

    It starts automatically only in CarPlay ! I tried on Android Auto with a Motorola ThinkPhone and a Samsung S24 Ultra and tracklog does not start automatically after loading the route from Android Auto, only if I open the app on the phone.
    I also tested with my iPhone 13 and it automatically starts the tracklog after I load the route from CarPlay.

    @Adrian-Avram like I promissed did another test today.
    New route containing 2 shapingpoints and 3 viapoints, start, end and one in the middle
    Started the route using AA. That worked like I thought it would. Then looked at the tracklog on the AA screen. The collor wasn’t yellow but showed the original track. Then opened my phone and started MRA. Then the route witch I was riding showed up on the screen followed by the yellow marking from the automated tracklog. As of that moment it showed also on the AA screen. Only thing I did was opening MRA on my phone and then when the tracklog showed closing the phone.
    I’ll make a ticket of my findings

      @Marinus-van-Deudekom so I guess tracklog is starting after all but not displaying the yellow line (making me think that it is not recording the track) ...

      Best regards,

        @Adrian-Avram no it did not start directly from AA but when I just opened MRA on my phone it started recording. As of then it showed the yellow line also on AA

          Indeed. That is what happens with the tracklog. I saw the same behaviour also

          (I use MRA Next only on Android Auto. Every comment, suggestion, etc will be based on my usage with Android Auto)

            @Adrian-Avram I think my answer above could be cinfusing. so
            I starten te route from AA. When I was navigating the route and didn't see the yellow trackloog marking then I opened my phone and started MRA. The phone hooked up on the route whitout me doing anything. Then I saw the yellow marking on my phone's screen and at the same time the yellow marking apeared on AA'screen. Then when I closed my phones screes AA kept on recording the tracklog.
            I've asked the Devs for a solution.

              @Adrian-Avram meanwhile the Devs assured me the problem will be fixed in one of the next updates
