I noticed I can no longer use hot spot while wirelessly connected to android auto. This breaks on occasion after certain updates but usually gets resolved in a future update. Will you be fixing this issue? I ahave an unlocked S26 Ultra, just received the 9.0 update. Surprised to see it's not working as it can.

Thanks!

As this is only a user-to-user support forum, developers are not likely to see your post. To submit feedback directly to Samsung, use the "send feedback" option on the Support tab of the Members app.

@Crick This is because Android Auto uses a Wifi connection. This is an issue for Google to resolve, not Samsung.

Not entirely. Connection issues cropped up during the S26 beta, which is why I suggested submitting feedback. It's not solely a Google issue to solve.

@Crick You would need to disable wireless Android Auto. You can use your USB connection for wired Android Auto and not use Wifi.
