Since I picked up my new Leon 5 weeks ago, the screen has always displayed the signal strength and battery level of my phone, just below the clock. However, since yesterday, the battery level still shows but signal strength has disappeared. Not a biggy, but odd. Has anyone else noticed similar or am I doing something silly?

(Picture below - B indicates battery level, SS indicates where signal strength used to show).

Think this is android auto related, has nothing to do with the car.
As well battery indicator is still showing on top of the screen. There you see phone signal strength,connection, world globe, time.

The battery indicator shown is for my phone, but the globe and signal strength shown relate to the eSIM I think. My display used to show two different signal strengths, one for my phone (now missing) and one for the SEAT eSIM (still showing).
 
It's not for the esim.
Because when I put my phone on it. Then I see that in andriod auto and the one on the display bumps up the same way.
This is all related to the signal enhancement of the wireless charger.

I've learned something new. I don't have a wireless charger, but when I switched my phone to airplane mode, the top signal strength indicator disappeared too. So now I have two questions - why were there two displays of the same thing and why has one of mine disappeared?
 
One is always there and is part of the seat application. Other is from andriod auto, that is only there when you open it android auto

For me it is also missing. So we need to wait till Google fixed this in android auto.
