How accurate is the Where Am I tool?

On phones with GPS enabled, accuracy is typically 5–20 metres outdoors. Laptops and desktops without GPS fall back to Wi-Fi positioning, which can be off by tens or even hundreds of metres. The tool shows the estimated accuracy radius next to your coordinates.

Is my GPS location stored or shared?

No. The coordinates are read by your own browser via the standard Geolocation API and are never sent to or stored by this website. The only external call is to a reverse-geocoding service that converts your coordinates into an address.

Why is my GPS location different from my IP location?

Your GPS position comes from satellites (or Wi-Fi triangulation) and pinpoints your device. Your IP location comes from databases that map your internet provider's address ranges and often points to the ISP's routing hub in another city. GPS is far more precise.

Why doesn't the location button work?

Browsers only allow geolocation on secure (HTTPS) connections and after you grant permission. If you denied access earlier, click the padlock icon next to the address bar, set Location to Allow, and press the button again.

O le a le sa'o o le meafaigaluega o Fea O A'u?

I telefoni e fa'aogaina le GPS, o le sa'o e masani lava 5-20 mita i fafo. O komepiuta feavea'i ma komepiuta e aunoa ma le GPS e toe fo'i i le tulaga o le Wi-Fi, lea e mafai ona pa'u i le fiasefulu po o le selau o mita. O lo'o fa'aalia e le meafaigaluega le fuata'i sa'o sa'o i tafatafa o au fa'amaopoopo.

Po'o teuina pe fa'asoa lo'u nofoaga GPS?

Leai. O fa'amaopoopo e faitau e lau lava su'esu'ega e ala i le Geolocation API ma e le'i tu'uina atu pe teuina e lenei 'upega tafa'ilagi. Na'o le vala'au i fafo o le 'au'aunaga fa'a-geocoding e fa'aliliu ai au fa'amaopoopo i se tuatusi.

Aisea e ese ai lo'u nofoaga GPS mai lo'u nofoaga IP?

O lou tulaga GPS e sau mai satelite (po'o le Wi-Fi triangulation) ma fa'ailoa lau masini. O lou nofoaga IP e sau mai fa'amaumauga o lo'o fa'afanua ai le laina tuatusi o lau 'upega tafa'ilagi ma e masani ona fa'asino i le ISP o lo'o ta'avale i se isi taulaga. GPS e sili atu ona sa'o.

Aisea e le galue ai le faamau nofoaga?

Na'o su'esu'e e fa'atagaina geolocation i feso'ota'iga malupuipuia (HTTPS) ma pe a uma ona e fa'atagaina. Afai na e faafitia le avanoa muamua, kiliki le pusa loka i tafatafa o le tuatusi pa, seti le Nofoaga e Fa'ataga, ma toe oomi le ki.
