  2. exact location, not next street

    Actually it still doesnt work when Im too close to a street. Is there no way to tell it to really show the exact location?

  3. my pc location is showing the wrong location

    I have the same issue. it lists our location at our old house we left 3 months ago.

    it's fine using our phones (which have internal GPS), but all our PC's are showing the wrong location.

    we have 1 on windows 10 and 1 on windows 11, both are wrong.

    they are wrong in edge and chrome.

    they are wrong in the weather apps and anything which uses the location.

    I have followed the common steps of setting the location, of refreshing dns, or ip, I've changed all entries to location I can find.

    even on websites to try to find a local branch, it suggests them near our old house.

    Have just spent an hour on the phone with our ISP (EE) who have nothing more to suggest!

  4. location on find my device always shows up across the street

    exact location, not next street

    My phone definitely points to nearby streets when I press My Location. When I walk away from a street to a field for example it just stays on the street until I'm far away from any street.

    I wonder why it's different for you.
