iPhone 15 Pro Max Significant locations are registering wrong places

Hi, I have been using an iPhone 15 Pro Max for about one week and I am having a problem with Signficant locations. I have them on and they seem to work in the sense that they actually registered - and keep registering if I cancel it - my school’s location were I stay 5 hours a day, but not my actual home. This (I understood) is also the reason why optimized charging doesn’t turn on. I am desperately looking forward to fix this issue, as this is even more frustrating if you consider it would be enough to let you manually select those spots.

Thank you in advance for your help,

good evening.

Have you:

Opened Contacts App and at the top is your Contact Card
Added your home and school address in your Contact Card

Note: It can take a few weeks for your iPhone to learn from where you spend the most time and for optimized battery charging to establish a baseline as well.

There is no way one can know what locations have been registered by the Significant Location features on an iPhone.

What are looking at and where are looking at is not clear from your post.

Is your device Jailbroken?

Yes, in my contacts my address appears to have been correctly identified. And for about the fact iPhone can take some week to learn and starting to use features such as optimized charging and others, I hoped you’re right, ‘cause I also saw many people complaining about this kind of things on other forums after months of usage of their device. Still thank you for your answer, it was the most useful for now.

If YOU could select a significant location, so could the thief who stole your iPhone.

I can actually view my Significant locations going into Settings>Location services>System services>Significant location and no, my device is not jailbroken.
