Is there any way to make the camera follow a target?

[Danwolve98]

I would like the camera to track a point on the map (user's location) in real time, but since the point is manually interpolated, I can't make the camera movement smooth using cameraState.animateTo.

What have you tried?

LaunchedEffect(userLocation) {
        if(mapMode == MapState.RouteGo && userLocation != null)
            cameraState.animateTo(
                CameraPosition(
                    target = Position(userLocation!!.longitude,userLocation!!.latitude),
                    zoom = 18.0,
                    padding = PaddingValues(
                        top = 50.dp,
                        bottom = 50.dp,
                        start = (mapMode.uiFraction * mapWidth).plus(50.dp),
                        end = 50.dp
                    )),
                duration = 2200.milliseconds
            )
    }
    

I've tried updating the camera in the following way: the animation time is slightly longer than the position interpolation time, but nothing works; the movement is still not as desired.

What kind of movement did you observe, and what's desired?
