Has anyone else noticed any recent issues with their GPS accuracy on their 11 Pro or maybe even iOS 13. I can’t tell if it’s because it’s a new phone or the updated iOS but it seems when using map apps my gps location keeps moving around a lot when I’m stationary and it can’t seem to get a fixed location. Also seems it’s a bit off to the north about 20-30ft.
iPhone 11 Pro Max
Hey DexterII,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities! I definitely depend on Maps to work as expected, and I want to make sure you're able to depend on that as well! I am happy to provide some information and tips for resolving issues with Maps.
Based on the information you shared, I believe the resource below will be helpful in troubleshooting this Maps/GPS concern.
If the Maps app isn't working your Apple Device
Thanks again, and have a great day!
Maybe you didn‘t know that iPhone is using GLONASS and GALILEO too.
And even land surveyor, which are using GPS, are working with a much higher accuracy.
damnidunno, does google maps work in your car? What does GPSdiagnostic tell you when you are outside with no tree cover? See my advice on this page & page 9.
AWRunner, I'm not familiar with AW5. What app is that? Couldn't find it in the app store. Does that app do GPS filtering?
Sorry, my fault. AW5 = Apple Watch 5. Only models with cellular affected.
AWRunner, this thread is about the iPhone 11 and its variants, not the Apple Watch.
Bummer. Sounds like maybe there’s more than one issue then. Hope you can get it resolved soon!
Unfortunately we haven’t found a suitable solution. You can only try to use an app with GPS filter. This does not solve the problem, but at least reduced the impact.
What hiking app are you using? Does it do GPS filtering? I use an app that does, Guru Maps Pro, and it works fine.
GPS filtering is critical.
IOS 14 is out, and the gps problem remains...
it´s so frustrating try to use maps ou google map and the blue arrow freezes or go 500m to the side...
better buy a cheap android just for the GPS...
Hi I have an 11pro and have noticed my running app is not registering true distance at all. Especially since the latest updates 14.00.00 and 14.00.01. I am registering 1km for every 1.75km run.
GPS accuracy iOS 13 and/or 11 Pro Max
