After updating to iOS 18 I noticed that Maps background usage is quite significant while using Wireless Carplay in my VW Golf MK8. I don't navigate, only use the Maps widget. The phone should use the car's GPS in wireless mode but control centre shows that Maps is constantly using location services. I even downloaded my city's map and disabled cellular data for Maps but it still drains the battery.
As far as I remember it wasn't like this prior to iOS 18. Anyone experience something similar?
