Cannot set permissions for overlay

Hekar

There are 3 navigation apps installed on my phone for testing: Google Maps, Magic Earth and Mapfactor Navigator. When I open TT Amigo and select overlay mode, it asks me to approve which apps it may overlay. In this list, none of the 3 navigation apps is shown, also not when I expand it to show system processes. So how can I use it as an overlay?

@VikramK : While trying your suggestion, I just noticed I have to do this:

BTW, on my (German) phone the app is still called "Blitzer", not AmiGo, although I installed AmiGo from Playstore)

In Android (roughly translated into English): Settings – Apps and Notifications – Blitzer – Extended – Overlay other apps (enable)

So it seems AmiGo fails to set this property while it installs.

Hi @Hekar

There are some phone models where we have seen reports about the overlay mode not working.

Could you check if battery saving mode is turned off, for both the app and the phone as a whole?

Thank you,
Vikram
