Probably been asked a load of times so apologies, but I recently changed to a Samsung phone and the location settings on Fab don't work. Anybody have any tips please?

Forgive me for being obvious but is your location turned on?

I've had numerous Samsung phones and never had a problem with Fab.

Same. Turn Location on by pulling down short menu from top twice to get quick settings, select Location so it's highlighted and return/back.

The go search Who's Nearby and it should be accurate

Unless you have one of those new Flip/Fold ones, whereby my sympathies go out the window

It is on yes, so I don't understand why it does not work. It could be something obvious I'm missing but for the life of me I can't see it at present.

I find the distance accuracy is better on ifone than Android.

Do you mean the account location setting (Ireland Dublin) or the Location Services (GPS coordinates)?

Thank you. My galaxy has been doing the same since I switched phones a few weeks ago. Chrome had the site blocked. Easy fix when you know how
