Now into third beta, and unfortunately it seems that Android Auto continues to drain battery even after the phone disconnects from the car. I'm using Android Auto wirelessly, and I've noticed a consistent high background battery use by Google Play Services after using my car. Google Play Services usage is high, I believe, because Google Maps (navigation) stays active (navigation notification continues to appear), and this seems to be active because Android Auto has not stopped running in the background. I've managed to decrease the Google Play Services battery drain by force stopping Android Auto and Google Maps after I exit the car. I'm not 100% sure, but both apps seem to start up again by themselves unless I restart the phone. I suppose I could restart the phone every time I get out of the car...but there has to be a better way. I'm using the S21 on TMo, third beta, I factory reset my phone after installing the first beta. I leave my Bluetooth radio on all day because I have my phone connected to my Chromebook when I'm at home, and I use Android Auto when I'm in the car.

. I've looked at some of the logs. (I've been a software engineer for 30+ years) It's the core Samsung Android 12 One UI 4 runtime. I've done Samsung betas for a long time, but this one, for me anyway, is the worse experience. Unfortunately, there's no workaround. It doesn't matter what's going on with the phone - if I'm actively using it: calling, texting, working with some other app, or get this, phone is sitting on the end table while I'm sleeping - it randomly reboots.
