Since upgrading to iOS 8.3 the maps apps on my ipad do not show current location from my gps DUALXGPS150A
The data is still being received by the ipad but not appearing on any of the maps.
Everything was working fine before the upgrade.
iPad, iOS 8.3
Hi davidisleta,
If you are having issues with your iPad not showing location information, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

Many thanks Brett L,
I have tried all of your suggestions but the situation is still the same,
I understand many others are having the same problem so I am hoping for an 8.3+ from Apple. I hope it will be soon.
A good GPS fix is essential for me walking in the mountains of Spain, even the best of the paper maps can be out of date.
Best regards
David

Looks like Apple changed 8.3 and the GPS device manufactures are supposed to figure it out and make the changes needed based on the comments found on this web site... http://bad-elf.com/blogs/bad-elf/18013536-alert-compatibility-issue-with-apple-i os-8-3-and-external-gps-receivers
There are reports of problems with bluetooth gps devices and 8.3.
GPS data not available to apps after iOS 8.3 update
Look there the last couple of pages.
Try upgrading the firmware on your gps device.
Wait for 8.4.
Try a cable connect with your gps if your gps supports.
