IT would be Great to use fusion location to get quicker Update of GPS signal

After a while offline GCDroid takes quite a while to Update the GPS. For example After travelling a bit and then switching on the App it takes up to ten Minute to get the GPS.


Other Apps are much faster "online" and ready to find caches

to be honest, fusion only helps if you have other location data. 

It has other downsides and not much upside and would be a big change for me.

!0 minutes sounds very odd. all phones use agps (all I know of...) and I never needed more than a few seconds to get a location. to be honest, I never noticed even a few seconds.

I used GCDroid across several 1000 miles of travel by car and crossing multiple time zones by plane.

never had that issue. sure this is not a phone issue?


if what you see was normal people could not navigate with google maps. Fusion works by fusing GPS, LTE, WIFI data and triangulation. The only thing usable for navigation is GPS. JUST by the other alone Google maps would not know if you are in the left turn lane for that u-turn you are making.

I never had an issue with accurate GPS data.


What phone are you using?
