The error only occurred on Android Auto, as otherwise, everything was running properly on Android. The update to version 11.66 hardly produced an improvement, with users still losing the GPS signal when running Google Maps. The only problem is that Google’s fix needed a fix as well. The firm recommended everyone to update, revealing that the new version included improvements specifically to refine how the app determines the user location. In early February, the company shipped version 11.66, which was primarily supposed to fix the GPS location problem in Google Maps. This is why Google rushed to urgently come up with a fix. Google Maps has a gigantic user base on Android and Android Auto, and such a bug could eventually impact a concerning number of adopters. The glitch was discovered earlier this year, and Google rapidly started an investigation. The app fails to determine users’ locations, eventually rendering the route guidance useless. This is because Google Maps keeps struggling with GPS problems on Android Auto.
