iPhone 8 Plus maps navigation lagging

iPhone 8 Plus when using maps for directions it is lagging therefore does not update until it catches up making you miss your turn or the directions. It is really bad and I am trying to figure out how to have the navigation reset so it actually goes where I am when I’m using the Maps/gps for directions. (I reported the issue twice with Apple and have not heard back yet) does anyone know how this can be fixed or why it is happening?

iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 13

Hi marrissal,


It's definitely important to be able to rely on your Maps app for navigation. We understand you're not hearing directions as expected and there seems to be a delay.


Have you found this happens always, or does it happen intermittently?


Have you noticed what cellular service strength you have when the issue is occurring?


As a test, try tapping Settings > Privacy > Location Services > Maps, and toggle location services off for that app, and then back on. Does this help?


Let us know! Also, be sure to include your iOS version if you find that doesn't help.


Kind regards.
