Using /e/OS Applications

So. Yeh. Location is on. but not one of the apps can find location. not weather or map… nothing.
I’ve tried to find help from online, but nothing. I admit I’m not best of searching since English ain’t my first languake and I have dyslexia.
But … it would be nice to get locations working for apps. I can’t be only one with this issue?
I’ve been doing some ROM hopping and the same problem is with calyxos and lineage and iode
I’m noobie with android so… please, if you need to know something… tell me what and how :smiley:

Check Advanced Privacy (the screen to the left of the home screen). A “fake location” might be activated for all apps. You can either deactivate this completely OR change the Advanced Privacy :gear: settings in detail (choose which apps get location and which apps do not get it).
