Hi
I picked up a new android phone and installed the companion app from the Aurora store.
It seems fine and I can see the new phone is added as a device, but it doesn't show up on the map at all.
My iPhone and iPad are displayed on the map, but not the new one.
I can't remember if I had to for something to make the apple devices visible on the map - it was a while ago!
Is there anything I need to configure?
Many thanks,
Simon

Yep just checked through that

Hmmm ok try <https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/troubleshooting/faqs#devic...
Ah brilliant thanks, seems like I had to enable high accuracy location in the manage sensors part of the app and now I am on the map!
my next challenge is to work out why I can't get my automation to send to this phone when they go to my iphone ok!

You should have a similar action with the device name
Did you make sure to grant all the permissions when you logged into the app?

Yes I duplicated an existing automation and just changed the 'device to notify', pretty sure I granted all permissions.

Any errors in the logs

Not sure, I'll have another try this evening after work

I may have issues with notifications on this phone so will make sure that is resolved first!
