Laggy Android Auto

[rokfor2000]

Does anyone have any issues with Android Auto? It's extremely laggy. All starts well, but after driving for few minutes it starts lagging to the point where the navigation doesn't keep up. I use Waze and on my last drive it got around 300 yards behind! I makes it really tricky to navigate an unfamiliar city.

I checked the phone, the location was OK. I stopped and and I actually watched the car icon on a display to catch up to me showing the route I've taken after quite a few seconds. The clicks on the screen also stopped registering immediately. Something's really off there. Is it me or do IM6 have some infotainment issues?

Have you tried the IMs own sat nav, could be an android issue with your phone

It's Android Auto that's laggy, so IM sat nav is not an indication here. I use Waze for accurate routing and traffic info.

It's unlikely the Phone. It's a Pixel 10 Pro XL that works perfectly fine with other cars. On the other hand, the car has exactly the same issue with a Samsung A72.

I have read this elsewhere too, think on Facebook group.
Looks like it doesn't like android auto...

If this is the case I hope the fix is coming. As it stand's it's not really usable.

A quick update. The issue seems to be with how IM6 is handles Waze itself. Android Auto seems to be working OK when using Maps for navigation. With Waze, system is so laggy that even touches register only after ~10s.

What's the built-in satnav like on the IM5/6?

Not good when it comes to timing, for that reason I haven't tested more than a single journey. Even though it seemed to have known there was a congestion (road marked red) it was giving a VERY optimistic arrival time compared to Google Maps / Waze. When I was 45 min away from my destination (according to Google maps), it was telling me I'd arrive in 32. I've arrived in 48 min.

Seemed to have chosen the same road as the Apps, but then again, it was a rather straightforward route. I'll stick with what I know and use Android for navigation.
