Hello Deegamble,


Are you trying to update your location for searches within an app?


If so, your related article Turn Location Services and GPS on or off on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch is helpful to ensure the correct services are turned on. For additional information, see About privacy and Location Services in iOS and iPadOS.


You can also make sure the language and region on your iPhone is correct Change the language on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch


If this is network related, you can try connecting to different Wi-Fi networks. If the location on your Wi-Fi network is not what you expected, contact the network provider. If you are using a VPN, temporarily uninstall it to ensure it is not affecting the network location.


If this is within a particular app, you may want to contact the app developer How to contact an app developer for assistance.


Hope this information helps.


Have a good day.
