iOS 8.4 GPS Issue

I updated to iOS 8.4 and now my GPS isn't getting data quickly, when using Maps or Waze for directions it take so long to figure out where it's at it's pretty much useless. Anyone else having this issue?

iPhone 6, iOS 8.4

Hi!


Same issue here. It's only affecting my iPhone 6+. First I thought GPS is completely broken as WhatsApp reported first GPS not available or similar. Using Apple Maps I waited several minutes before lock whereas at the same spot my girlfriend with her iPhone 6+ got lock within seconds using iOS 8.3. Tried restart - same symptoms.


Tried later at home iPhone 4s, 5, 5s, iPad Air 2 -- all worked fine although iPad took also surprisingly long time to lock compared to what I think it used to be.


Still waiting for the perfect iOS update. >:(


Edit: did also OTA this time instead waiting full n GBs download via iTunes.
