anyone having problems with indoor geolocation not working with WiFi and cellular. Working with 4 iphones(2xs, 6 and se). All on iOS 12 and none working inside anymore with geolocation. MacBooks ok. Data and WiFi fine. But it won’t find out location unless we go outside.

Anyone else seeing this?

Not exactly but similar.
I give Apple Maps a try after every upgrade.
Outside is matches what Google Maps shows as to location. However when I am in my house, Apple Maps is off, showing me living next door to my actual location. Google maps however is correct.

Okay ... then again that makes sense as to satellite LOS.
I ran the app inside my house and received different results based on my indoor location. Wide variation in results.
