How Accurate is iPhone GPS.

youthacademy · 2009-05-29 14:40:27

Hi All, Does anyone know how accurate the native GPS on the iPhone is? I understand it uses an aggregation of GPS sat., Wi-fi, and Mobile cell Triangulation. I was hoping to get accuracy to within meters? Cheers, youthacademy

All depends on coverage, cell density and if you're within a known WiFi hotspot.

I'd be looking at about 5 metres in a urban area, from experience.
