Notes:
-
Due to iPhone's limited GPS reception quality, the speed information isn't accurate below 10 km/h (6 mph)
-
The compass works only while you are moving.
A limited GPS signal can have many different reasons:
- bad positioning of the iPhone in the car. Like with every portable navigation device, the iPhone should always have a free view to the sky.
- metallized thermally insulated windshield
- usage of design or protective covers
While using our Car Dashboard Software please avoid using covers since these influence the reception of a GPS signal.
What can I do to improve the GPS-Signal of my iPhone?
Answer:
During the following process the memory of your iPhone will be reorganized. This will have a positive effect on the quality of the GPS-Signal. The internal memory will be entirely deleted during this process. Therefore it is extremely necessary to make a backup of the software as described in step 1.
- Please connect your iPhone to iTunes and perform synchronize it. After that please click with the right mouse button on the iPhone-Icon (in the left menu of iTunes) and choose “backup”. iTunes will now create an entire backup of your iPhone data and settings.
- Then disconnect your iPhone from the computer and connect it to the power supply.
- On your iPhone choose “Settings” -> “General” -> “Reset”.
- Then choose “Erase all Content and Settings” and confirm this.
- The following steps can take up to two hours and more, depending on the model and storage capacity of your iPhone
- After the procedure is finished please connect the iPhone to your computer again.
- Now using the backup install your data and settings.
