AGPS limitations & tips
Your phone uses Assisted Global Positioning
System (AGPS) satellite signals to estimate your
location. If your phone cannot find strong satellite
signals, your AGPS might be slower, less accurate, or it
might not work at all. AGPS provides only an
approximate location, often within 150 feet (45 meters)
but sometimes much farther from your actual location.
To improve AGPS accuracy:
• Go outside and away from underground
locations, covered vehicles, structures with
metal or concrete roofs, tall buildings, and
foliage. Indoor performance might improve if
you move closer to windows, but some
window sun shielding films can block satellite
signals.
• Move away from radios, entertainment
equipment, and other electronic devices that
