iPhone thinks I am in China

There is value in precision when asking technical support questions. ;-)

Is your problem with the Apple Maps app? Or a different one? Go to Settings>Location Services><App in question> and make sure Precise Location is enabled. See if that helps.

That link explains how to change the region of your Apple ID account. It sounded to me as if the OP was saying the phone thinks it's in the wrong region. Will changing the account region help with that? (I've known weirder things to help!)

This is a user-to-user support forum. Apple's participation here is minimal.

Go to Settings>General>Language & Region>Region and, regardless of what it says the region is currently set to, reselect the correct region.

Good point. Maybe they should try yours first then mine.

Perhaps the OP will post back with more details. ;-)

Best of luck! I'd also check to see if you have the same problem with Google Maps.
