Why does the map zoom to my old location when I hit the “Find my location” button? I’ve re-registered with my current location, an it shows my sensor their, but goes to the old location when I hit the button. Is there any way to fix this. Thank you.

It could be that your computer might be storing your old location in its cache. Maybe there’s a way to delete the old location from the cache and use your NEW location so that the most CURRENT location will be in the memory. It’s only a theory I have.

Thank you, Daniel. That makes sense. I’ll look into that.

You’re welcome. Hopefully my suggestion will help.
