EOS R6 Mark II Camera GPS Location Off by Miles

I have an EOS R6 Mark 11 connected to my iPhone 13 for GPS.  The camera GPS is always off by several miles.  Obviously, my iPhone can locate me within a few feet.  Why the huge discrepancy?

Thanks.

Greetings,

Suggest you check the Canon Connect App permissions and ensure Location is allowed.

I assume you mean “do I have location access,” and of course yes.  I would have no GPS if it weren’t. (The GPS indicator on the camera flashes if you forget to turn on the app, right?) It does disconnect if my camera times out which is annoying and the object of a later question, but yes, if I understand your question, I am accessing location from the app.  Is this what you meant?
