GPS not working on iPhone 6s
Hi all,
I bought a used iPhone 6s recently, and it has been working fine until now.
With WiFi off, the phone only has a rough idea of where I am, showing +/- several hundred meters. For comparison, that's my entire housing estate. With WiFi on, the phone knows what street I'm in. However, previously the phone could pinpoint my location accurately. Taking it out Geocaching today, it was clear that the issue wasn't due to houses or trees. Without WiFi and a weak 4G signal, the phone was completely lost - unlike before.
Would this be fixed by replacing the GPS antenna, or is the GPS chip dead?
Thank you!
Esta é uma boa pergunta?

Hey I’ve got a 6s and having literally this exact problem. Did you ever manage to solve it?
Outside with WiFi available: medium circle
Outside in a field (no WiFi available): huge circle
Flight mode turned on: “Location could not be determined”
So that pretty much points to GPS broken :(
Tried restarting phone, resetting location settings. Also this happens in every app. Pretty sure earlier today my GPS was working fine, like I think I would’ve noticed it :/ I’ve had my 6s from new, over 2 years now, and the only problem I have is a really bad battery, never had this till today. Any suggestions? Thanks :)

I recently had this issue and downloaded the GPS Diagnostic app to find out my iPhone 6s was not receiving GPS satellite signals. Long story short, I deleted apps one at a time and when I deleted the Slacker Radio app the GPS Diagnostic app showed four satellites and all my nav apps started working.
