GPS have been always a weaker side of iPhones as far as location service are concerned. Many user have now found issue with iphone 6 and 7 that GPS service is sometimes getting greyed out or not working accurately to precise location. While using iphone sometimes the in the aps on my iPhone 6, my location is off by about 50 feet. iphone 6 has problems with the wifi and the gps signals some times. Even on external apps when user uses google maps or maps the apps can't find the exact location so as a result I cannot get the correct instructions! This is very annoying nad problematic situation where iphone GPS showing WRONG CURRENT LOCATION.
Although there are no official fix or update launched by Apple on this, which is very bad from apple as thousands of request have been put to apple to fix the issue.
