Location update delay on maps

Question

Location update delay on maps

I have an iPhone 6 and after a recent iOS update my location on maps and google maps isn’t updating quick enough to use turn by turn. If I start on a drive the blue dot just sits at the starting point, occasionally it will update but it updates miles behind where I m actually at.

Unfortunately, those setting all appear to be correct. Maps and all other items, except for ads and analytics have location services turned on, and maps have cellular turned on.
