Google maps navigation is lagging

[SpoOokY1983]

Hi,

I have a very annoying problem with the navigation with Google maps on my Huawei Watch in combination with my Xperia Z3. When I open maps without navigating somewhere, the map shows my location and is scrolling more or less in real-time.
As soon as I start navigating, the map does not show my location in real-time anymore. Every 10 seconds the map gets updated and in between nothing happens or moves.
Is do not expect this to be a feature so I suppose something is not working properly.

I have already tried to factory reset the watch and re-sync apps. Did not help. Maps on the smartphone is working flawlessly.

Does anybody else have this problem?

Just a thought, have you tried using the android app 1.3? I know calls are delayed with the 1.4 app update and have read that 1.3apk will work. I personally haven't tried it, but it's worth a shot. Check to see if the apk will work below...

As far as I know navigation on watch is depending on two factors:
1. Bluetooth connection between phone and watch
2. The position of the phone becoause the gps function is performed by the phone, not the watch.

So, please try to keep your phone in a good position to "see" the sky AND close to your watch.

1.Factory reset your watch
2.check to have the latest version of android wear installed on your phone and watch
3. Is your watch heating?

I cant even use maps on my huawei watch because it rotates all the time.

I have tried everything but cannot get maps to work smooth in navigation mode. I will wait for firmware 1.4. Hope it will fix it.

It just does not work. commands are not communicated on time to be aware about direction. For car it is useless. Maybe if you walk it is fast enough, but i don't find it useful.
