        Hi,
        I'm posting this as a result of my testing. I don't know
        if other users of Xperia X F5121 and Meizu 5 Pro can
        confirm:

        It appears that phones don't always return coordinates
        of your location (with location toggled on of course)
        to uNav app.

          I know this problem occur on first GPS fix. Some time it takes about 15 to 30 mn on my Nexus 5 to get GPS first fix. On Volla it's immediate.
          Also make sure your phone is outside.

            @marek_python I have the same issue with any Navigation app or webapp on my Sony Xperia X Performance (F8131). It only works at OpenStreetMap at all, no way with Falk or Web-Google-Maps.

            Couldn't try it with uNav, because this is not in my AppStore. Don't know why.

              I don't think websites have access to GPS...
              See on the other thread you posted on for finding uNav.

                @xekuta747 I think it depends of the website. I personally made a webapp with this URL:

                https://map.schweizmobil.ch (only for Switzerland terrain)

                In Webber I did allow GPS location and it works perfectly well.
                I use it to find the trails in high mountains hikes (very useful above 10'000 feet high where walk tracks are not very visible;-)
