I'm aggravated by smartlock. It seems that my trusted devices constantly drop off or disappear. I set my bluetooth speaker in the car as a trusted device but inevitably I'll get in the car and after the speaker is connected to my phone, I find that my lock screen is still locked. When I go to smart lock and look under trusted devices, nothing is there. What the *#@*(?? I've done this repeatedly and it never works like it is supposed to. Am I mistaken about what smart lock really does? When connected to a trusted device shouldn't it allow me to skip the lock screen? Even if it doesn't, and I am mistaken about what smartlock does, why are my trusted devices always disappearing from the list and need to be re-listed? Very aggravated..please, somebody got a fix?

LG-V10 TMobile, unrooted, fully updated OS.

Same behavior on a brand new (stock) rooted Samsung Galaxy S8 G950F. Trusted devices disappear. (but bluetooth pairings disappear too, which may be the issue)
