Change home address on iPhone

I recently moved as well. I have updated my contact information, my info is set to my contact info, and I have restarted the phone, both power off and hard reset. The phone still thinks my old address is the correct one even after I've deleted that address from my contacts entirely.

Any ideas?

It's in your contact record in the Contacts app.

For any of your contacts you can Edit to change addresses, add additional address locations as well as all other type of contact information.

Try this...

Go to "Manage your Apple ID" clicking here --> https://appleid.apple.com/cgi-bin/WebObjects/MyAppleId.woa/.

When you have logged in to your Apple account, in the left side go to "Addresses" and then edit your "Primary Address". After that, sign out and restart your phone. Open your "Map App" and try again.

If the problem are using the "Google Maps App" go to --> https://accounts.google.com/ServiceLogin?hl=en&continue=https://maps.google.com/ %3Fmid%3D1388152391&service=local.

When you have logged in to your Google account, in the left side go to "My Places" and then edit your "Home" and/or "Work" Addresses, then click "Save". Close and Open your "Google Maps App" and try again.

Ah! I added a home and and a work address in there as there was just my email address under my contact and after turning off and on it has worked!

Thank you, I was stupidly thinking since there was no address there it shouldn't matter, but my phone had other ideas! :)

I seem to have a different problem, reminders linked the Home and Work addresses of a friend of mine. Would you have a clue how to change this to my own addresses?

I did this also!

To fix it:

Settings > Mail Contacts Calendars > Contacts > My Info. Select the correct account.

Thanks! I feel a little stupid now, but you solved my problem.

I have a related question. I have my Home address set correctly in Contacts, and I have Settings > Mail Contacts Calendars > Contacts > My Info set properly, but the Maps app thinks "Home" is a different, incorrect address one town over.

How can i fix this, please???? There is no pref for Maps in this regard.

Same issue here!! Home address doesn't match between reminders and contacts.

Thanks! In my case, my new "home" is really a secondary home, but my primary residence for now....so I still had my old "home" also marked as a "Home" address under myself in Contacts. I just changed the old home address to "Other" and now the default in Maps is the new address ;-)

I am having the same issue with the maps app, affecting the reminders and calendar apps. I can't get my phone to change my home address to our new one. I have checked my apple ID as suggested, and it is set to the correct (new) address. Everything is correct in settings and contacts and I am out of ideas. Any help would be appreciated.

I figured it out nevermind!

Sorry to rez an old thread, but I'm wondering if you could tell me how you sorted it, ubookout? My phone thinks I work 2hrs 40 minutes drive away from home when in reality it's a five minute drive. I've tried the contacts thing and my Apple ID address. It's bugging me so much that my reminders screen keeps telling me it'll take me that long to drive there, if I press it to get the route up, it's a place I've never even heard of, never mind been!!! I've tried the report a problem thing on the pin too, dragging it to the right place but it's just not working :(

If you are running iOS 7, you may need to go into:

Settings->Privacy->Location Services->System Services->Frequent Locations

and deleted the old home address and add a new one.

Under contacts should be your name. Once I edited the address there the map and calendar app worked just fine. Hope this helps!
