Are you sure? Diging around in Laufhelden, I didn't find any occurrence of Keepalive. It seems to be done otherwise (maybe by dbus requests?). But as stated before, I'm new to all of this, yet trying to learn and understand (which is rather challenging as there are many new things to be understood)...

How about showing the accuracy circle we already have while not navigating, also below the navigation position marker?
Waze is showing a grey circle even below their already beautifully readable position marker arrow to make it a tad more visible. In waze the circle becomes blue when there is no sat-fix.
In Pure Maps the the circle width could show the accuracy and thus would even be informative and not just there for style reasons.
Maybe also some color change from orange/red = no sat-fix to grey or greenish if the accuracy reached certain level?

I am not sure I follow - we have uncertainty marker below the position marker whether its in navigation or normal mode. Although, maybe some additional marking indicating when the signal is lost or we are at very low resolution level. I will have to look into what is possible (blinking, colors, ...).

there should be some mechanism preventing a phone to get to sleep while navigating.

My fault. i never saw that the "uncertainty marker" is there all the time...
When there is a good signal it is just smaller than the position marker and i never zoomed in enough to see it

Is it really required to show the position marker when there is no gps fix? If I open the application to explore the map or check places or for whatever reason, my current position is indicated as last known position. And if I click center on current position, the map even gets centered there, while it is not actually my current position. I think position marker should be greyed out or made transparent or not even shown and center on current position should not work unless there is a valid position fix.

At the moment, the position marker is shown the way it is - even when GPS is turned off in SFOS' settings. The proposed marker could remind you, that it's turned off, also (color/state x = gps off, color/state y = old position, color/state z = actual position).
