GPS won't work then screen is off with Power Saver on

[agolz12]

I'm having an issue when trying to run my GPS with Strava. I have my Power Saver mode set to medium and whenever I turn my screen off my GPS stops recording my progress. I have Strava set to not be optimized and have allowed it to run in the background without restriction. I would like to keep my Power saver mode on all the time to keep my screen brightness reduced but it's annoying that it doesn't allow GPS to work right

Maybe you can't have both because the GPS needs more power

To keep my screen brightness reduced, just reduce it manually. But, as Mike said, you probably can't have GPS running with power saving enabled.

I have experienced a similar problem. I'm using android auto and map to navigate my route. Even though the charging cable is plugged, GPS is turned off when screen off .
