You need to keep Wi-Fi on if you want location services to be accurate. GPS satellites only are useful outdoors with a clear view of the sky. If the sky is blocked by tall buildings, tree cover, or even heavy precipitation (or indoors) location services falls back to using the location of known Wi-Fi hotspots (it only receives the Wi-Fi signals, it doesn’t connect). But with Wi-Fi off location services just won’t be able to determine location.


If you open the Weather app does it show your current location at the top of the list>
