Group: Forum Members Posts: 12, Visits: 116	Hi all With the new reversion to internal GPS feature, I find that, especially when teaching, I’m still seeing device connection lost 350 seconds ago or some such. Would it be possible to have a setting to allow automatic reversion as I’m obviously missing the touch flag to allow temporary reversion. Thanks Cat Cat Burton SFI Aeros Cardiff

I think it's not helpful to automatically revert to location services, losing traffic reception, which is why I want the user to have to opt in to it. Hopefully the fact we now support this failure mode at all is helpful, I just don't want to make it fully automatic at this stage. We shouldn't lose sight of the fact that this feature, while designed to make life easier for our users, is essentially easing the pain of a failing third-party product. If your traffic receiver is failing that often, I would seriously consider raising the issue with its manufacturer.
