Mapbox GL user location GPS offset rnmapbox/maps

We have an app that implements rnmapbox/maps for an android build.

I have a very strange case where: Users position does not match their current GPS location. When they go into Google maps, it gives the correct location.

However, in our app there is an offset to this location. We don't see this for any other users. Their location permissions are turned on (validated).

Any ideas what could cause this kind of offset in Mapbox-GL?

Thanks for any insights

Solution

  • While we have not isolated the cause of this issue, it turns out that clearing the app data and installing an updated version seems to have resolved the issue.

    It seems strange that when we investigated the app permissions they were apparently allowed, but it seems like this may have been the issue.

    This may just be an issue of user experience. If we find anything new I will post it.
