Navigation apps and the use of GPS have become very important tools in everyday life – they allow you to get anywhere without asking the locals, or to find the nearest cafe with the best rating in the area.
However, there is a possibility that your Xiaomi, Redmi or Poco does not always determine the current location sufficiently. This may be indicated by the fact that the same Yandex Maps or any other similar application quite often determines the location incorrectly or far enough from the actual location.
However, in the new HyperOS software platform, as well as in the good old MIUI, there is a fairly simple and fast way to improve the accuracy of the GPS receiver of your Xiaomi, Redmi or Poco.
This feature in HyperOS uses GPS and Wi-Fi modules, signals from cell towers, and even readings from some sensors, including a gyroscope and accelerometer, to solve this problem.
In order to improve the accuracy of location detection on your Xiaomi, Redmi or Poco, go to Settings – Location – Geolocation Services – Geolocation accuracy – where we activate the More accurate location detection switch.
In this simple way we can improve the GPS positioning device Xiaomi, Redmi and Poco, more precisely identifying the location in applications such as Yandex Maps, Google Maps, Android Auto, and others, without the need to learn complicated settings or install third party programs.
P.S. Other useful instructions on how to set up the HyperOS system and use its features on Xiaomi, Redmi and Poco devices can be found on our website in this section.
