MAPS Question?

[DMB15]

Anyone who has used the beta version... When you are using the turn-by-turn directions, I assume the screen stays on permanently until you are done using it or does it cut off after 30 sec. to a min, like it normally does when you stop using the phone?

It stays on.

If you lock the device, it temporarily turns the screen back on to show you the navigation from the lock screen, then switches back off after a few seconds. Then, as you are approaching your next point of guidance (like a turn or exit or such) and the voice prompt sounds, the lock screen comes back on until you finish that instruction, then turns back off until another prompt.

Once all navigation has ended, I believe the phone will use the default autolock settings.
