Reply to "Solocator vs GE"

My guess is that the device you are using has a lot more to do with the GPS coordinates you see than the particular app that you are using. The Android OS or IOS probably has an API call that is used to "get" the GPS coordinates. The app may have some post-processing it does of the info it gets from that API call, but my guess is it is just reporting the GPS coordinates it gets.

A couple ways to test this would be to use two different devices (phones) to run Solocator and see if they give you the same coordinates. Another way to test it would be to run different apps on your one phone and see if they all give you the same coordinates.

None of this answers your question about GE, but it does address the whole issue of GPS coordinate variability.
