Field Maps 25.2.0 update Creating Issues with Trimble Mobile Manager

[NorthVanForester]

Hello,

Is anyone else experiencing Trimble Mobile Manager issues when trying to connect an external GPS to Field maps? Field Maps 25.2.0 removed all previous connections to external recievers. Connection attempts lead to endless looping from Field Maps to Trimble Mobile Manager.

Field Maps 25.2.0 update has created huge disruptions across our organization.

Another issue: the keyboard does not move out of the way when you're typing. Usually the attribute field auto-scrolls so the keyboard is just below the field in which you are typing.

Our looping issue usually happened when there was a mismatch in updates between TMM and Field Maps (one of them updated, one had not). We're using a MDM platform so it's difficult to manually control updates. When looping starts, users were able to quickly set Field Maps back to integrated GPS to stop the loop. After that it was just a matter of making sure both apps are updated and restarting the iPad.

Hey @ColinLawrence , 

I am using and iPad Pro M5 on 26.6 with a Trimble DA2

Field Maps Version - 26.2.2 Build 2812
Trimble Mobile Manager Version - App version 2026.12.8 TPSKD Version 2025.1.28488.43

Below is a video of what is happening. Happens when I connect to TMM then open a map in Field Maps.

Thank you for these details. You don't happen to have two different version of Field Maps installed on this device do you (ie also having the Field Maps Beta installed)?

We have come across this "Unable to open link" error before and are looking into it already. Im wondering if the root cause is the same or if these are separate issues. 

Would you be able to share the troubleshooting logs from Field maps after reproducing this? If you reset the Location Provider in Field Maps does this fix the behavior for you?
Edit: Can you also share the logs from Trimble Mobile Manager as well?
