My iPhone XR is missing a green dot in astronomy

Missing green dot in astronomy

I like the new Lock Screen showing the earth detail. But my iPhone SE 2 shows a green dot indicating my location whereas the iPhone XR does not. I tried to turn on and off the location service for astronomy and restarted the iPhone. Nothing seems to work.

Location service is also on for the map and widget.


any ideas?

Hey ibaad81,


It was a great idea checking location services is turned on and restarting your iPhone. If you check Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > Astronomy, is it set correctly here? If not, choose "While Using the App" to have it show your position on the globe. Also check that your Date & Time settings are correct under Settings > General > Date & Time.


Let us know how it goes.


Take care!
