Automatic google maps dimming

[Redbaron]

Most annoying samsung- thing is back...Screen dims automatically when using Google maps.As soon as you use GM, screen dims down automatically right away to a point, where i cant see anything anymore, almost got into an accident because i had my nose right up to the screen because i couldnt read the street name.

All the settings in the world didnt help to solve the issue, have to go back to Xiaomis Flagship Mi 11 , as i need this app every day. Last time to buy a samsung phone, the previous Note had the same issue, so it is not a glitch.

Luckily, i still have time to return the phone, so i will. Xiaomi, you guys are my favorite !!!!

No. It's not. I have the same problem. It only does it for Google Maps, and it does it even when it's not in navigation mode. I'm an IT manager, and I know how to make all is the appropriate setting adjustments. I've also tried a force stop, clearing the cache and an uninstall/reinstall. 

You shouldn't give snap (and frankly, silly) advice when you don't even correctly read the OP.

It dims INSTANTLY...and ONLY in Google Maps.

I have a Galaxy S22+ AND a Moto G Power, and I just retired a Galaxy S2.

IT ONLY DOES IT ON THE SAMSUNG PHONES

Once again your preconceived motions lead you to offer silly suggestions. Firstly, that was only happening in NAVIGATION MODE. As the OP clearly said, it happens when you open the app, not only when you enter navigation mode.

Secondly, that issue (the one from your outdated link) was resolved a decade ago.

Thirdly, this is exclusively a SAMSUNG issue.

Oh, well then it must be "no."
