Unfortunately, even with the background location access permitted, this feature doesn’t work.

Oh, that’s unfortunate. Is it connected to the new permission model for location access? Does this option not work even with explicit “allow background location access” that new Android has?

Hi, this option is not available on devices running OS Android 12+ due to its newest restrictions of certain automatic actions running in the background.

Has it been removed?
