[QUOTE="Ratsima, post: 1838342, member: 402210"] I've seen mentions here and there of GPS problems with the iPhone 11. Here's one article: [URL="https://www.imore.com/iphone-11-gps-all-wonky-youre-not-alone-it-seems"]iMore: iPhone 11 GPS all wonky? You're not alone, it seems[/URL] I don't have an 11, but I'm wondering if others have seen this. It's not likely that you'd notice unless an app you're using, such as Waze or Strava, asks Location Services to provide GPS level accuracy. ([URL="https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/documentation/UserExperience/Conceptual/LocationAwarenessPG/CoreLocation/CoreLocation.html"]Location and Maps Programming Guide[/URL]) I'm interested because a couple of years back when Apple, in an ill-fated attempt to improve battery life, turned the GPS radio [I]off[/I] by default on older phones like my iPhone 6s. It was really frustrating when apps like Strava and Waze simply refused to start up. [/QUOTE]
