Feature request / Issue: Forced log out when switching between dual Android Auto devices
-
Hello Support Team,
I am writing to you regarding the use of MyRoute-App on two different smartphones. I use a Pixel 9 in my car and a dedicated Pixel 5 for my motorcycle rides. Both devices run with Android Auto.
Since the latest update, I have been facing a frustrating issue: I am systematically forced to log out and log in again every time I switch between devices. While I completely understand the security reasons behind limiting active sessions, this constraint is highly inconvenient in practice.
When I am about to start a motorcycle trip, if I realize my session was left active on my other smartphone, I have to re-enter my credentials. This requires a stable cellular network connection, which is not always available in remote areas at the start of a ride. Additionally, I do not always have my credentials handy on the spot.
Is there any workaround to prevent this automatic log out when switching devices? Would it be possible to allow persistent login for a limited number of devices (e.g., dual-device registration) under the same account?
Thank you very much for your assistance and feedback. -
I don't think this is necessary. In the settings menu (click on the avatar), you'll see an option at the bottom called "My Devices." If you click on it, you'll see a list of the devices that are logged in and the option to log one or more of them out. So no need to log out!
