Brilliant!
After a few days of use, this APP seems to be providing EXACTLY what I was looking for, including “where the heck am I”🤷🏻♂️🤡 and how many satellites are being used at any given point to substantiate that. Thank-you

Solved poor GPS tracking problems on iPhone and Watch
This app has solved my problem of poor GPS tracking when running or biking. Before, I would often lose the signal, either right at the start of my outing, or somewhere along the route. Now I start GPS Diagnostic before starting out, and wait until I get four green bars. Then the iPhone/watch location services have locked onto the satellite signal, and GPS tracking is good.
Not working with iPhone 12 Plus iOS 14.2
Not working with iPhone 12. I sent an email to de developer ... no reply. Very disappointing.
Does the job
Simple ...no issues
Donne de très bon diagnostics
Bon
GPS Diagnostic: Good App
Worth getting. I’m happy with it.
Good app, does what it’s suppose to
I bought the app to help diagnose a problem I was having with my iPhone GPS receiver. It works well as advertised. Thanks
Excellent app.
Display good informations with a pleasant interface. Now that the iPhone uses Galileo in addition to Navstar and Glonass, developer should find a way to show what kind of satellites is in use specifically.
Should be part of operating system
Apple would believe my gps wasn't working properly until I installed this app
Works with Garmin GLO.
I bought this app only to see if my Garmin GLO bluetooth receiver worked with this app. It works very well on showing GPS Satellite status. The app would get five stars if it had a battery Status Indicator, and Bars showing GPS and GLONAS satellite bars and strength signals, and an accuracy in Meters. Garmin does not make a status app for the Garmin GLO, this would fill the need that Garmin does not provide.
