Location Settings Troubleshooting - Android

Written by Matt Harris

Precise location settings are required to use the app. The app will most often fail to recognize location for one of two reasons:

  • Global location settings are turned off for the device.

  • App Specific location settings are not properly configured.
    ​


To troubleshoot location settings using the app, use the following steps:

  1. Open the app, and click on the More menu (triple-dot) in the bottom right corner.
    ​

  2. Click User Settings.
    ​

  3. Click on Manage App Permissions.
    ​

  4. Click on Location Settings.
    ​

  5. Please ensure that Location is enabled as shown. This is the Global location setting for the device.
    ​

  6. Next, select App permissions.
    ​

  7. On your app's page, ensure that anything other than Never is selected for location access, and that Precise Location is enabled as shown. These are the app-specific location settings.
