I opened SnapBridge and linked my Z 7 to my iPhone X Max via Bluetooth. I turned ON Auto link and checked the Synchronize Location Data box. When I returned from a shoot, most of the GPS co-ordinates were the same - wrong location. 

 

Does anybody know how this works exactly? Does the camera's meter have to be ON all the time? Does SnapBridge's Auto-link, Power-saving Mode have to be turned OFF?

 

I know my iPhone is recording the proper GPS co-ords, but that info doesn't seem to be recorded with the images. It's as though the last recorded co-ords are being used for all images until new co-ords have been established.

No idea what your talking about but Nikon have just updated snapbridge, could that be the problem.
