So I've had two 16e's and both behaved the same way, and it's been awhile since I've had an iPhone that did this.
It's not a huge deal, but in apps that use GPS, I've noticed the arrow being off. For example, I'm driving east on a highway, but the arrow in the Maps app is pointing south. If I move the phone around, it maintains that 90 degree discrepancy. So it's sensing the movement just fine, it's just off in its direction. When it's happening, it happens across any app that's pinpointing my location - Apple Maps, Google Maps, Flight Radar, etc. The apps work fine, the arrow just reflects the phone pointing in the wrong direction.
I've done the old arm twist/roll to try and recalibrate the phone (I don't even know if that's a thing any more) to no avail.
It's also not all the time - but enough for me to notice.
Maybe this is normal iOS behavior and I just hadn't noticed on my prior devices, but wondered if others were seeing this. Thx!
