Location arrow on iPhone 13 is solid all the time

The location arrow on my IPhone 13 is solid all the time. Stays solid even when Location Services is turned off. Checked all apps. All are while using or never. Suggestions?

Hi PinkieW,


Is this happening on the latest version of iOS 16? The latest is currently iOS 16.2. You can confirm by going to Settings > General > About to confirm. Software updates contain bug fixes and security updates that help with the functionality of your device.


Check out: Update your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support


  1. Back up your device using iCloud or your computer.
  2. Plug your device into power and connect to the internet with Wi-Fi.
  3. Go to Settings > General, then tap Software
  4. Tap Install Now


If this continues, you may want to reach out to Apple directly for further assistance. Depending on your region, you may be able to reach them here: Get Support.


Have a good one!
