Google maps wrong location

sandmanporto · 2014-10-04 19:02:24

Hi I would appreciate some help in setting my tablet right for the location. When at home and using it it shows up as in the same street and town that I was in during the week. I've cleared all data and no change. I have an Acer iconia tablet. :confused: I owe whoever helps me out a drink

If you have a gmail / google account you can set your 'home' address.

Also, you might want to check your settings and location settings. Try turning them off and on again (no, really!) :pac:

Do you have a connection where you are now? Is it hooked up via 3g / wifi?
