    Iphone 6S GPS inaccurate (max 65m and navigation does not work)

    My iphone 6s GPS has stopped functioning. It finds my location only when I stand still, and then it only has an accuracy of 65m. When I try to drive with it, it keeps thinking I am pointing the opposite direction than I am driving and it also only tracks me for a few seconds and then assumes I...

    iPhone 6(S)/Plus Nike+RunClub gps not working

    Hi, I've always used this app for running and I love it because it tracks my course. Unfortunately, yesterday I saw it was not tracking my run, and it was imprecise. Any idea on what could be happening? I've already checked that location is turned to always, and confirmed that in the app it is...

    GPS and the Nike Apple Watch

    I must be missing something. I have owned numerous GPS enabled watches that I have used for running and cycling. In each instance, the watch must find the GPS signal which sometimes takes minutes. With the Nike watch fully coupled to my iPhone, when I institute the NRC app on the watch, it is...

    Constantly Using Location Without Authorization

    When using my device I see the Location Services icon every thirty minutes (approximately). I realised the culprit is "Setting Time Zone" under Privacy/ Location Settings/ System Services. EVEN WHEN DISABLED it continues to use my GPS. Does this bug happens only with me?

    Looking for call log app with notes and pictures

    Hello there, I am currently looking for an apartment in my town, and most of them are simply announced with a sign on the building. Many numbers don't answer on the first call, and don't return voice messages. I see many people using the good old pencil + compact notebook, stopping before each...

    Does iPhone 7 Plus have TRUE GPS?

    When I say "true GPS" I mean the ability to function independently of a data service in conjunction with a mapping program like Google maps? Driving from Porto to Lisbon airport, I was running a bit late, and ran past the precise ending hour for my data package with the SIM chip in my Vodaphone...

    Outdoor Cycle readings totally off

    I just got my first apple watch (2) about a month ago. The activity readings, especially during an outdoor cycle session, are really off, and I'm hoping it's because I've failed to do something obvious (otherwise I'm regretting my purchase!). I've been on several outdoor cycle sessions and...

    GPS fix and blue circle in Maps app (Google and Apple)

    So, I'm wondering if I have issues with my GPS on a new iphone 7. I'm new to iOS, so it could be that this is normal, but the size of the blue circle, which indicates the status of a GPS fix and its accuracy, is quite large. It never is smaller than 50 meters and usually it sits around almost...

    Took the AW Series 2 on its first run & swim today with disappointing results

    Just thought i'd share this to see if people have had better luck with their GPS or have had similar problems to me. Running I run a 5k every week and know the route extremely well. I usually take my phone and use Runkeeper, with it giving me audio cues every 500m. Because of this, i know...

    Workout app - GPS not working

    Hey forum! I have the Apple Watch version 2. Today I went out for a cycling activity. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to utilize the GPS of the watch, which means the Workout app didn't display any pace or mile data. I was in a small town and had a clear view to the sky, tough. Am I doing something...
