HTC ONE M8 disconnecting on google maps app

[AC Question]

First time using the HTC one M8 on google maps app turn by turn navigation during a long drive, when i noticed that it kept on disconnecting the app after an hour. This happened all throughout my 16 hour drive. Never happened on my other android phone before. Any advise?

There was something similar last year on HTC devices.
Uninstall the updates to the Google maps and restart the phone, then update the Google maps app.
See if it works for you.
