My Location does not update in realtime. This is a problem when using map/hiking apps.

When I am using Google Maps or AllTrails, my location is identified when I start, but does not update as I move forward in vehicle or walking. I have gotten off course on trails due to there not being accurate location information.

When that problem occurs, do you see the compass symbol in the upper left corner of the picture below?



please turn on "Precise Location" on settings, and you may solve this problem.
