iPhone X GPS not working - Arghhhhh! I recently purchased a used iPhone X, iOS 16.3.1. Everything is great except the GPS can't seem to pinpoint my location and so it's (worse than!) useless for navigation. I read through a thread from 2017-2018 and have tried the standard solutions of doing the Network and Location & Privacy resets, rebooting, etc. All an Apple Store Genius could suggest was to do the resets which was no help at all. Is anyone else still having this issue? Was a solution ever found? I'm beyond frustrated. Any help would be most gratefully appreciated!!

GPS Location drifts after awhile. Apple store reverted back to like factory and still does not work The GPS location starts reporting location incorrectly after driving awhile. It does not report correctly on Waze, Google Maps, or even Find my iphone. I did the location setting steps found in an earlier post and it still did not work. I took to the apple store and they wiped it and it's back to brand new settings, and the GPS location is stil not working. This is an iphone 13 with IOS 17.2.1 installed. Now what?

Iphone 13 pro max GPS issues Hello, recently, I've been dealing with problems with my iPhone's GPS. When I'm at home and check my location, it shows me more than 60 km away. I've tried things like resetting location, toggling location off and on, and even restarting the phone. They worked temporarily, but the issues keep coming back. Is this a hardware or software problem, and what's the fix?

I simply rebooted my 11Pro and it started working properly.
