I finally spoke with someone in support from Apple. I’m not sure if this works yet as I only did it on my iPad Pro. This morning when I thought it would it wouldn’t. Then I realized I needed to do it on my iPhone as well.

Here’s what support had me do:

  1. If you have the 2 “Home” icons in Location go to General.
  2. Scroll down to Transfer or Reset (item)
  3. Go to “Reset”
  4. Go to “Reset Location & Privacy”
  5. Reset
  6. You should now only have 1 “Home” icon. Activate it for location.
  7. You’ll be prompted on other items as you use them to use this then.


As I said I have done this to my iPhone as well after checking it and will see if it works tomorrow morning coming back from walking the dog.
