From my experience I believe that the issue is triggered by several apps sharing GPS access.
For instance, GPS frequently breaks down with uNav, when other apps access GPS data concurrently. Like: Browser (geolocation, e.g. Google maps), nearby scope, cachemere, etc.
I tend to have open a lot of apps in background, many of them acessIng GPS. If I use uNav togetjer with those, it usually works for a few minuites, then freezes an loses GPS.
I can resolve this issue by closing all other apps using GPS. After that, uNav works perfect.

I.e.: uNav requires exclusive access to GPS in order to work. It breaks as soon as another process requires read access to GPS.

There us no logical reason, why not several processes at once should read GPS data (it is read-obky after all). Still, this reproducibly breaks.
