It may happen that MyCarTracks app is not recording on Android 10 when running in the background because you don’t have the Location permission set to Allow all the time.

To enable that MyCarTracks has always access to Location permission **go to Android Settings** and then follow:

**Apps & notifications > MyCarTracks > Permissions >  Location**and here make sure to use the option**Allow all the time**

It should look like this:

After that, it may happen that from time to time you will see also a notification that looks like the below, but that’s fine it only says that it is allowed to run in the background. Don’t tap on it or change to other that Allow all the time.
