only "back" button after unlock screen

Hi all,

I have just noticed that only the "back" button is displayed when I have activated the "unlock screen" function and go directly from the lock screen to a running LOCUS navigation, for example (see screenshot below).

Previously, I always had all three navigation buttons there so that I could, for example, quickly switch to the home screen (after face unlock, of course) without ending the navigation.

Now I can only press "back", which stops the navigation and ends LOCUS, which is very inconvenient ...

Has anyone else observed this behavior and, ideally, have a suggested solution? I have already switched "Unlock screen" off and on again.

I am using a Google Pixel 8 Pro on the latest Android 15 version (BP1A.250305.019) and LOCUS Ver. 4.28.2

o.k., seems to be an Android problem: it also occurs with the phone app  >:(

It works with gesture control ...

Yes. Pixel 6a. It's annoying but not annoying enough for me to start looking for solutions.

Hello,
i can confirm this annoying behavior for google Pixel 8a, Android 15 and Locus Pro 4.28.3

When i'm using the navigation or tracking, i have to shut down Locus Pro to use another phone function like taking a picture with the camera.
Maybe someone has an idea.
Thanks, Christian

Same here. I also had frequently a frozen Locus App not responding anymore.
Pixel 7 Pro, Android 15, latest Locus version 4.28.3

This behavior popped up after I reinstated Locus because of very laggy reposition the map in some situations (missed turn and left the route while navigating)

Hello,


I have the same issue on the Pixel 7. I've clearly identified the problem. Only the back button appears when the phone is locked and asks for fingerprint or pattern.  To work around it, you need to enable the 'Extend Unlock' feature in the phone settings. This limits unlocking the phone using fingerprint or pattern when the phone detects motion."
