Does phone navigation still work okay in tunnels?

I’ve had the same thing happen plenty of times. The map doesn’t exactly die, it just gets stuck on the last spot it had before the signal cut out, so you’re basically staring at a frozen dot while you drive. I’ve learned to just keep an eye on the exit signs instead of trusting the screen in there. Mine usually snaps back within a few seconds once I’m out, so nothing has ever stayed broken. The one that gets me is parking garages, because the thing is already confused about which level you’re on before you even lose the signal. Tunnels are at least straightforward, you go in one end and come out the other. It’s annoying but it’s been like that with every phone I’ve had, so I don’t think it’s something you did wrong.

Mine cuts out in the car wash too, not just tunnels. It’s just the signal getting blocked, nothing to fix. I still keep the phone mount visible so I know which way to turn when it comes back.

I still like having the phone up where I can glance at it even if the dot stops moving, mostly so I know roughly how far I’ve gone in. Mine usually catches up once there’s sky again.

It’s just how phones work in tunnels, nothing is really broken. I’ve noticed mine goes a bit weird in a different way though. Sometimes the dot keeps gliding along at a normal speed even after the signal should be gone, like it’s guessing where I am from the last bit of movement. Then it freezes or jumps once I come out the other side. I don’t think there’s much you can do about it on a normal phone. It’s the same reason my music cuts out in some underpasses. I just keep an eye on the road signs inside the tunnel instead of staring at the screen, since the phone clearly can’t keep up in there. It’s a bit annoying but it always comes back once there’s sky above me again.

Mine actually does the opposite of what you’d expect. The map keeps sliding along for a while after I enter, like it’s guessing where I am, then it snaps back once I get a signal again. So it’s not frozen, just a bit off. Yours freezing sounds like a different thing.

Mine drops out every single time in the long tunnel on my commute, not just a freeze. It comes back once there’s sky again, but for those few minutes I’m basically on my own. I’ve just learned to check the exit signs instead of staring at the screen.

Mine tends to freeze right when I need it most, of course. I’ve started glancing at the next turn or exit before I go in, just so I have a rough idea if the map goes quiet. Does it usually come back on its own once you’re out, or do you have to fiddle with it?
