[AC Question]

When I push start navigation it says location mode not supported

Hi there.

It sounds like you are using the Power Saving location mode, which does not use GPS (required for navigation mode). If you go into your device Settings, look for a "Location" option. In there, change the Mode to either High-Accuracy, or GPS Only.

Your answer solved my problem. Thank you!!

Glad I could help. I've run into it a few times after setting that mode.

That can be controlled by Tasker, if you want to save having to do it manually every time you run Maps (or waste battery by leaving it in high accuracy mode all the time). The Secure Settings plugin allows you to enable or disable location services, or to change the mode (high accuracy, battery saving, etc.) Let the fact that Maps is running trigger a set of actions that enable GPS, set the location mode, etc.
