It's working but not all the time plus you can't change GPS boost option it's on the medium.
★★★★☆ Jeff Maher · Jan 6, 2025
Hi - I got a Pixel 7, and it has well known accuracy issues with the GPS. Active GPS has helped me with the accuracy, however I still have a chronic lag issue. I take a picture, walk 20 feet, take another picture, walk 20 ft, and take another picture and repeat. Often the GPS will report the location of the previous picture. The GPS is accurate but often does not refresh fast enough that the current location is report. Is there a way to update the GPS faster? Thanks =
★★★★★ Owen Wildig · Jun 15, 2023
It a really good mobile data Booster.it needs more power for the mobile data for internet please and mobile data needs to be boosted for mobile data for in the city and the Road and Highway and the street by homes Because it really slows as a Snail 🐌 it the Connection from the mobile data Booster app.
★★★★★ Randy Thon · Jul 18, 2021
Wow! Outstanding. I wrote an app to basically track inventory outside. Tried for 2 days to collect accurate gps data with a samsung s8+. The GPS readings were all over the place. Installed active GPS, then ran my program. Set to fast mode. GPS readings were spot on and Fast. Thank you! Accurate data far outweighs the use of the battery. I attached an external battery pack and can run all day. Again, thank you!

Cannot change medium high or low on the app does not take it stays at medium this is ridiculous needs to be fixed
★☆☆☆☆ Geoff Frangle · Nov 7, 2023
Simply doesn't work. All the permissions are set correctly (Allow all the time) but when your turn GPS on then put the app to the background GPS just turns off.
