It's your phone GPS wifi going bad. I had the same exact problem a couple of weeks ago. I had to get my phone fixed. Its hardware, not the app.

 

Would factory reset fix the problem?

 

It could. I tried that first initially, then went to the Apple Store. They did it again plus something else.

My wifi in the house was weak also which was abnormal. So I went and bought a new phone the next day. Then I did some research and said hold up maybe they can fix the old phone. I wasn't so excited about spending $600 for a new phone.

So I took the phone and got it fixed. Tested it out to make sure it worked. Then I took the new phone back. Lol!

 

Has anyone else had problems with the navigation GPS? I use Google maps and the last few days it has my location all over the map. It keep rerouting or had me on different streets. It really messes up at night.

Does this happened to anyone else?
Could it be to many people online using it at same time?

Any recommendations for a better navigation app?

I'd delete the app, do a hard reboot of phone then reinstall the google maps. I use WAZE a "crowd sourcing" GPS owned by google

 

I turn off wife when I drive (hasn been a while) because all the time the phone catches wifi signals and tries to connect or use them, which if it does connect it's only briefly and then it freezes when loses connections and messes up the gps. Always turn off wifi when driving so your gps doesn't freeze out between those brief moments of connections you may get

 

I reset phone...so far so good.
Yes, i to turn off wifi when driving but sometimes it still catches on (maybe cuz im log on to xfin). Ive tried waze before for a few days it just seems a little busy for me. Maybe ill try again. Anything to relieve the frustration of crazy navigation.

Thanks you guys.
