Hello! I understand that you're having trouble with Avenza Maps not tracking your location. Let’s see if we can get this resolved together.
First, could you please let me know if you've recently changed anything in your app settings or your device's location settings? Additionally, are you experiencing this issue while connected to Wi-Fi, cellular data, or both?
In the meantime, here are some initial troubleshooting steps you can try:
1. Ensure Location Services Are Enabled: - Go to your iPhone's Settings. - Tap on Privacy. - Select Location Services and make sure it's turned on. - Scroll down to find Avenza Maps and ensure it's set to either "While Using the App" or "Always."
2. Check Background App Refresh: - Navigate to Settings > General > Background App Refresh. - Make sure that it is enabled for Avenza Maps.
3. Check Airplane Mode: - Ensure that Airplane Mode isn’t activated, as this will disable all wireless signals, including GPS.
4. Restart Your Device: Sometimes, a simple restart can help refresh the system.
5. Calibrate Your Compass: If you’re experiencing issues with the compass specifically, you might need to calibrate it. You can find guidance on this in the Avenza support documentation here: Locating with GPS and Compass.
Give these steps a try, and let me know if Avenza Maps starts tracking your location properly! If not, we can explore more advanced troubleshooting options.
