Why is my GPS signal so poor?
I have a Samsung Galaxy A3, recently I have been using my GPS a lot on my phone, between tracking runs and (surprise, surprise) playing Pokemon Go, and I have noticed that my GPS accuracy is just appalling, sometimes it wont find my location at all, sometimes it will eventually, but it will just take a long time, I have downloaded a GPS testing app, and it shows that frequently it wont connect to any visible satellites, or maybe just 1 or 2, which means that I will have an accuracy of maybe 1 - 2km, if any at all. Comparing this to my Partners iPhone, who has an accuracy of maybe 5 - 10m, in the same location.
any help on this would be very much appreciated.
Thanks.
